Detailed Solution

This is because a lightning conductor is a pointed metal rod which is placed at the top of the building. Therefore it is used to protect the buildings to get damaged. Hence, pointed metal rod is connected with a wire which produces low resistance path to lightning and allow it to pass to the ground without causing any damage to the building.
