SWMBO has purchased a windvane which needs to be fixed on our roof.
Made of metal, with quite a few pointy bits so I think it might
be "attractive" to lightening.  It will be fixed on a small, lead
covered dome with a central steel mounting post.
1) Am I being paranoid - is there really likely to be much increased
danger? If so, would it be any worse than a TV or other aerial on the
roof?
2) Does anyone know anything about DIY installing lightening
conductors, what materials to use etc.
Any help or advise appreciated.
TIA
Nick
