Lightning Conductor with Brush
This lightning conductor is designed to protect buildings and structures from lightning strikes. It consists of a metal rod, typically made of copper or aluminum, that is mounted on the highest point of the structure. The rod is connected to a grounding system, which dissipates the electrical current from a lightning strike into the ground.
The brush at the top of the conductor enhances its effectiveness by increasing the surface area exposed to the air. This helps to attract and channel lightning strikes towards the conductor, preventing them from striking other parts of the structure.
