Step-by-step explanation:

A lightning rod (US, AUS) If lightning hits the structure:-

It will preferentially strike the rod and be conducted to ground through a wire.

Instead of passing through the structure, where it could start a fire or cause electrocution.

The parts of a lightning protection system are air terminals (lightning rods or strike) and all of the connectors and supports to complete the system.
