Advanced Galvanized Iron ConstructionBuilt using premium-grade galvanized iron, our earthing electrode features hot dip galvanization exceeding 100 microns in thickness. This robust treatment protects the electrode against corrosion, even in harsh environmental conditions, extending its effective lifetime to up to 10 years with minimal maintenance required.
Superior Electrical PerformanceEngineered for low earth resistance (less than 1 Ohm under optimal conditions), this electrode ensures safe and stable electrical grounding. Compatible with both copper strip conductors and cables, it supports high current and voltage applications (up to 1000A, 250V) in both single and three-phase systems.
Customizable and Reliable InstallationAvailable in diameters ranging from 40mm to 80mm and lengths from 2 to 3 meters, our earthing electrode accommodates various installation requirements. The design includes terminal clamps or bolted connections for secure attachment and supports easy integration with backfill compounds for improved moisture retention and performance.
FAQs of Metal Earthing Electrode:
Q: How is the metal earthing electrode installed for optimal performance?
A: For optimal performance, the electrode should be vertically placed in a pit filled with backfill compound to enhance conductivity and minimize earth resistance. The location should be chosen where the soil retains moisture for most of the year. Proper connection to the electrical system using terminal clamps or bolts is essential.
Q: What are the main benefits of using a hot dip galvanized iron (GI) electrode with over 100 microns coating?
A: The thick hot dip galvanized coating (>100 microns) protects the inner iron from corrosion, significantly extending the life expectancy of the electrodeup to 10 years. This makes it highly reliable and virtually maintenance-free, ensuring safety and consistent performance even in chemically aggressive soils.
Q: When should I consider customizing the electrodes size and how does it help?
A: Customization is recommended when installation sites have unique space constraints or specific electrical load requirements. By choosing the appropriate diameter and length (40mm80mm, 23m), you can ensure optimal earth coverage and current handling, thus maximizing earthing efficiency for your application.
Q: What types of applications and environments is this electrode suitable for?
A: The electrode is ideal for industrial, commercial, and general electrical earthing applications, supporting up to 1000A and 25kW. Its IP67 rating and temperature resilience (-20C to 70C) make it suitable for use in diverse Indian climates and a range of outdoor and indoor settings.
Q: How does the compatibility with copper strip conductors and cables enhance usage?
A: The inclusion of copper strip conductor compatibility allows for superior conductivity and efficient current transfer from electrical systems to earth. The electrode can be securely connected via terminal clamps or bolted joints, ensuring robust and reliable earthing for both copper and standard cables.
Q: What process is used to maintain low earth resistance over time?
A: Low earth resistance is maintained by using the correct installation methodplacing the electrode in a pit filled with backfill compound, ensuring good soil contact, and regularly checking connection integrity. The galvanized surface and proper moisture retention further help sustain low resistance for years.
