A lightning rod is a metal pole with a wire attached to it that runs from a high point in the building and down to the ground. They are used to prevent damage to buildings. Grounding static charges can help prevent sparks near flammable fuels. Paint sprayers work better if the object and the paint have different charges. Photocopiers use electrostatic principles in their operation. Grounding wires prevent damage to electrical equipment. Electrostatic precipitators work by creating charged
