Earthing Electrode In Chennai

Earthing Electrode In Chennai

Earthing electrodes are specifically designed and installed to improve a systems earthing. ... Earth electrodes include rods or pipes driven into the ground, metallic plates or mats buried in the earth or a copper wire ring encircling the structure.

What is Chemical earthing ?

Chemical Earthing is an alternative to conventional Salt Charcoal process, where and earth electrode is inserted in an augur hole in ground and is encapsulated in low resitivity moisture retaining compound. The salt Charcoal is avoided due to the corrosive property of Salt which leaches out with time worsening the performance of earthing.

What are its characteristics?

Conventionally, Gel Earthing is characterized as below :
1. Length : Most important parameter that help to reduce the earth resistance. The Earth Resistance lower linearly with the increase in the length of electrode.
2. Diameter : Generally speaking, increasing the Earth Electrode dia lowers the Earth Resistance, it is more effective to increase the length than increase the dia. It is because the dia of interfering hemisphere remains almost same.
3. Terminal : To connectr the earthing from equipment
4. Materials : The material determine the life of equipment. The better the galvinising thickness, pipe thickness, the better is life.
