The highly conductive copper and aluminum materials used in a lightning protection system provide a low resistance path to safely ground lightningâs dangerous electricity. These materials and components are UL-listed and specially manufactured for lightning protection.
This path is lower in resistance than the surrounding air and charge flows through this channel, creating lightning. Electricity is the flow of charge. The current is the amount of charge that flows through a cross-sectional area in one second. Voltage is the work done per charge. The voltage of lightning varies with certain altitudes and thickness of the bolt. These fluctuating values are caused by the fact that the cloud and earth act as capacitors.
