Lightning Protection is a method of protecting a structure from damage that could be caused by lightning strikes. This works by interrupting the flow of electricity and passing it through to 'ground'. They are called Lightning Protection Systems and usually consist of metal conductors, a network of lightning rods and ground electrodes.

The main purpose of these systems is to reduce damage on buildings received from lightning strikes. Lightning causes a fire hazard to structures when they are hit, the protection systems migrate this hazard. They work by providing a low-impendence path; this path is designed for the current and lessens the heat produced by the current. If the system of lightning hits a water saturated material there is a chance it could literally explode.

A really good example of a structure that is venerable to lightning is a wooden barn. Because of the heat given off by the lightning, when its strikes the barn it and its contents is likely to go up in flames. A protection system in this case would make most of the lighting follow a different path substantially reducing heat and damage to the wooden barn; it provides a conductive path between the ground and the air terminal that the lightning will follow.

Lightning is the visible discharge of static electricity within a cloud, between clouds, or between earth and a cloud. Lightning conceivably may have provided humankind with a first source of fire, but lightning has otherwise been a destructive force throughout human history. Strategies and apparatus for reducing the likelihood of damage by lightning are fairly old, including, for instance, lightning rods that have been in use for approximately 200 years.

Lightning can strike anywhere on earth - even at the north and south poles. Every year, thousands of people die because they did not make that small investment in a surge protector. Thousands of homes and other properties were also damaged or destroyed by lightning along with the death of human beings. Prevention is the best protection against lightning. Lightning protection systems must include an efficient dissipater collector; a low impedance path to earth; and a low resistance interface with true earth. High earth resistance increases the potential of a lightning strike. If struck, structures in these areas will generally sustain more damage when there is no lightning protection system present.

The lightning protection system is designed to reduce the probability of a direct lightning strike to the Ares I and associated launch equipment during processing and other activities prior to flight. A lightning protection system does not prevent lightning from striking; it provides a means for controlling it and preventing damage by providing a low resistance path for the discharge of lightning energy.
