While a buildingâs structural steel will conduct lightning, bonding, interconnection and grounding provided by a lightning protection system is needed to dissipate lightningâs harmful electricity safely to ground.
Even a small amount of ions in a water solution makes it able to conduct electricity (so definitely don't add salt to your lightning-storm bath water.). Once water contains these ions it will conduct electricity, such as from a lightning bolt or a wire from the wall socket, as the electricity from the source will seek out oppositely-charged ions in the water. Too bad if there is a human body in the way.
