Lightning (full solid hit struck our garage. there was a lamp housing in the rafters (I made it from sheet metal to shine on the BB hoop) it was connected by MN 14-2romex with ground. The strike blew the tin lamp to vapor. Put a 30 inch hole in the roof, and striped the copper clean and shiny (no loss of size just no insulation) jumped into the garage wiring from 10 inches away, leaving the plug copper blades screwed to the wire ends. Stripped the wire bare. Attacked a roller chain come along welding the rollers together .750 pitch! Then blue cone shaped holes in the garage concrete where the rebar crossed the mesh, then jumped into an extension cord following it to the house (only copper remaining) till it found a circuit in a bedroom and blew insulation off of that circuit till it got to the breakers. It blue the breaker out of the panel, and went to ground at the ground buss in the box. I have no doubt that the heavy copper cable on the rod system I have (equal to about #0 wire in cross section) will do the job. Jim
