It is an electrical conductor, because it is made of iron.
Iron, like all metals, contains "free" or "conduction" electrons which can move through the metal and carry charge.
Iron is also a thermal conductor, for the same reason.
Iron conducts both heat and electricity very well.

Iron is good conductor
Conductor
For a lightning conductor, we need an electrical conductor, so the iron would be superior.
Iron rod is the good conductor of heat first of all it receives heat and after sometime paper gets heated and catches fire
Iron conducts both heat and electricity very well.
If you introduce the rod with the round strips into the flame of a candle, the paper will not catch fire. The fire will lick the paper but not burn down until the iron rod becomes hot. This is because iron rod just like any other metal is a good conductor of heat, it leads away the heat obtained by paper from the candle flames. Replace the iron rod by a wooden stick and paper will burn because wood is a poor conductor of heat. With copper rod the experiment is more successful.
