Are you still thinking about using a lightning arrester?

I'm a bit confused. This picture shows a schematic of a gas discharge
tube arrester:

It shows that a ground connection is necessary. On the roof of the
IMC you pointed to a plastic cannister connected to Volo's equipment and
said it was a lightning protector, but it had no obvious ground
connection. I can't quite see how a lightning protector would work
without a ground connection.
