Dear Sir,
It was really a great quiz. I tried to send the answers to the mentioned email id. Can you please help in clearing the following doubts:
1. Are there any other control measures we can suggest against lightning, other than Lightning Arrestors?
2. Is a lightning arrestor required to be provided at the top of the tallest structure? How can we calculate the area protected by a lightning arrestor?
With regards,

Dear Dipil,
I really appreciate your interest in these topics. There are no other known control measures to me against lightning. The protection we provide and the way we are to protect ourselves are well explained in the attachment. It is easy to understand. There are different types of lightning like ribbon lightning, bead lightning, or ball lightning, all having different characteristics and degrees of hazard.

Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for your reply with technical explanations. It's really useful to study more about the topic. In the recent past, lightning struck Burj Dubai. I hope you received the email with live photos. If not, please let me know, and I will post them here. On that day, I briefly went through the topic. Later, your quiz made me contemplate the subject more deeply.
Thank you once again. I kindly request you to post more such rare topics that are very useful.
