A device (1) for the installation of a conducting component (2) on a structure (3) made from composite material, the inside of this structure (3) comprising a substance which can be ignited, which comprises an installation element (4) onto which the conducting component (2) is positioned, a conducting insert element (5), by means of which the installation element (4) is joined to the composite material structure (3) by its internal part, a conducting layer (6) arranged on the external part of the installation element (4) and a conducting fixing element (7) which joins the structure (3) and the installation element (4) to the insert element (5) and the conducting layer (6) so that the device (1) defines a low impedance current path through the conducting layer (6) and the insert element (5) through which the energy is dissipated from an atmospheric discharge to the component (2) or to the structure (3), the interior face of the structure (3) remaining isolated.
