GI Earthing Electrodes

Sun Earthing Electrodes (Maintenance Free) are an innovative and Eco- friendly product which is made using the best quality products. Sun Earthing Electrodes (Maintenance Free) are as per IS: 3043-1987, clause 9.2.1, 9.2.8 and 9.3. Earthing Electrodes are strong, reliable, durable and are resistant to corrosion. They also have a low maintenance cost and there is smooth dissipation of fault, lightning and short circuit currents. The Need for Earthing Earthing of Grounding is the most important component in an electrical circuit. It is necessary to eliminate electrostatic discharge which can destroy sensitive equipment and disrupt power supply. The primary objectives of earthing are: to activate safety devices under fault conditions; to control radio frequency emissions and electro magnetic interferences; to provide stable reference potential for instrument accuracy; to provide safe discharge path for short circuit and lightning currents. Why Earth Resistance Should Be Low? Sun Earthing Electrodes Manufactured from Mild Steel 'B' which is hot dip galvanized. Tested for Independent testing laboratories Central power Research Institute (CPRI). Standard:- Sun engineering make Maintence Free Earthing Electrodes is designed as per IS: 3043. Sun Earthing Electrodes are Filled with Highly Conductive and Anticorrosive Mixture It contains natural elements, which are highly conductive as well as anti corrosive Advance Back fill compound Sun Earthing Electrodes comes with a great Advance Back fill compound. It is an excellent ground enhancer. When water is added to the Advance Back fill compound, it swells substantially. Consistently holds its own shape and adheres to any surface. These capabilities resolve the issues of compatibility of soil-rod contact that is crucial to an earthing system. There is no need to recharge the pits in normal soils. Advance Back fill compound contains soil friendly materials. Advance Back fill compound maintains moisture with in the sphere of influence of the electrode, resulting in lower earth resistance, which cannot be obtained from any other earthing system. Advance Back fill compound enhances the surrounding soil conductivity there by making the earthing reliable and effective.

Soil resistivity will be high in sandy and rocky areas and in areas where there are obstructions like buildings, and in places where the soil is made up. Therefore, the earth resistance value (ohmic value) of an earth electrode will depend upon the resistivity of the soil in which it is installed. The factors determining the soil resistivity are the physical composition of the soil, moisture in soil, dissolved salts in water, rock formations/obstructions beneath the soil or near about the area of influence of the electrode, and current magnitude. Earth resistance value will be appreciably low in good soil.
