The lightning rod revolutionized our understanding and management of lightning strikes. By providing a safe path for lightning to dissipate, it has significantly reduced the risk of fires and injuries caused by lightning strikes. It has helped protect structures and has led to advancements in the field of electricity and electrical engineering.

When lightning strikes a lightning rod, the last place the charges flow is into the ground through the metal rod, which provides a safe path for the electrical current. This helps protect the building from damage by directing the energy away from the structure and into the ground.
A lightning rod is a metal rod installed on the roof of a building to intercept lightning strikes and safely conduct the electrical charge to the ground, thus preventing it from causing a fire inside the house. The rod provides a path of least resistance for the lightning to follow, protecting the structure by dissipating the potentially harmful electrical energy.
Benjamin Franklin is credited with inventing both the bifocals and the lightning rod. He created bifocals to address his presbyopia, a condition that causes difficulty in focusing on close objects, and he invented the lightning rod to protect buildings from lightning strikes by grounding the electrical charge.
