FAQ's of Prewelded Copper Bonded Rod With Electrogrip BFC GEM:
Q: How is the Prewelded Copper Bonded Rod installed in the ground?
A: The rod is installed by hammer setting or driving directly into the soil. Its round shape and driven mounting type make it suitable for quick installation across all types of soil, with no special tools required. Ensure proper use of the supplied Back Fill Compound GEM for optimal earth resistance.
Q: What makes this earthing rod suitable for harsh environments?
A: With a 250 micron pure copper electrolytic coating and a high tensile steel core, the rod demonstrates exceptional corrosion resistance (passed ASTM B117 - 1000 hrs) and is rugged enough for high humidity or aggressive soil. The IP65 rating provided by enclosure installation further protects the system.
Q: When should I consider using a rod with GEM Back Fill Compound?
A: Utilize the rod with Back Fill Compound GEM when aiming to achieve ultra-low earth resistance, particularly in high resistivity or rocky soils. The compound enhances soil conductivity, helping achieve resistance values below 1 ohm when properly installed.
Q: Where is this product commonly applied?
A: This earthing rod is commonly used in electrical grounding for commercial, industrial, and residential projects throughout India. Its compatibility with all soil types and robust electrical and environmental performance suit diverse installation scenarios.
Q: What benefits does copper bonding thickness 250 microns provide?
A: A copper bonding thickness of 250 microns prolongs service life by offering substantial corrosion protection. This durable layer maintains high conductivity (99.9% pure copper), ensuring consistent electrical performance throughout the rod's lifespan.
Q: How does the prewelded terminal and clamp design improve safety and efficiency?
A: The prewelded terminal and clamp provide secure, low-resistance electrical connections and reduce installation errors. This design improves both the durability and efficiency of the grounding system while ensuring robust performance at voltage ratings up to 415 V.
