How did lightning rod improve people lives?
The lightning rod (USA), lightning conductor (UK) is a metal rod that is placed on the top of tall buildings. A metal cable or strap connects the conductor to another metal rod sunk deep into the earth. The principle is that should lightning strike the building, it is attracted to the conductor and travels down the cable to be dissipated safely into the earth - so saving the building from lightning damage. Wooden building used to burn down under stikes from lightening. The lighten rod (Ben Franklin) gives the electricity a easy path to the ground instead of a heat-producing path through wood.

What a lightning rob does?
A lightning rod is a metal rod mounted on a structure to divert lightning strike away from the building and into the ground, preventing damage from electrical surges. When lightning strikes, the rod provides a path of least resistance for the electrical current to follow, minimizing the risk of fire or other damage.
