About GI Earthing Rods
In order to satisfy the utmost safety of equipments and buildings, we are offering excellent quality range of GI Earthing Rods. The offered rods creates an alternative path to the flow of excessive current into the ground due to the minimal resistivity of galvanized iron. These rods are precisely designed and manufactured in accordance with set industrial standards using superior-quality galvanized iron and innovative techniques. We offer provided GI Earthing Rods to the clients in various lengths, finishes and other technical specifications at most economical prices.
Features:
- Easy installation
- Corrosion resistance
- Excellent conductivity
- High mechanical strength
Optimal Earthing Performance for Every EnvironmentOur GI Earthing Rods provide high electrical conductivity and long-lasting corrosion resistance, making them suitable for diverse soil compositions and extreme weather. The rods can be easily installed with compatible chambers and covers, ensuring secure and efficient distribution of fault current to ground a crucial safety measure in all electrical installations.
Durability and Reliability AssuredWith a corrosion life expectancy exceeding 25 years and a robust surface finish achieved via hot dip galvanization, these rods withstand aggressive soil and humid conditions. Their tensile strength of over 600 N/mm ensures mechanical integrity, while the IP65/IP67 rating (with suitable enclosure) protects against environmental dust and moisture.
FAQs of GI Earthing Rods:
Q: How do I install GI Earthing Rods in different soil and climatic conditions?
A: GI Earthing Rods are designed for ease of installation in all types of soil and climates. They can be directly driven or sunk into the ground. For maximum protection, use with an earth pit, chamber, and appropriate clamps (U Bolt, GI, or Copper Bonded). Ensure rods are connected properly to your earthing system as per standard practices.
Q: What benefits do GI Earthing Rods provide for electrical installations?
A: These rods offer reliable grounding by maintaining low resistivity (<5 ), which is essential for the safe dissipation of electrical faults. Their high corrosion resistance and long service life (over 25 years) reduce maintenance costs and enhance the safety and stability of electrical systems.
Q: When should I choose a GI Earthing Rod over other earthing solutions?
A: Select GI Earthing Rods when you require high corrosion resistance, strong mechanical properties, and compatibility with diverse soils and climates. They are particularly advantageous in industrial settings, substations, and installations demanding long-term reliability and compliance with IS: 2629/BS: 729 standards.
Q: Where can GI Earthing Rods be used effectively?
A: These rods are ideal for a broad range of applications, including earthing for power distribution networks, substations, industrial plants, commercial buildings, and wherever robust electrical grounding is needed. They accommodate both single and three-phase systems.
Q: What is the installation process for GI Earthing Rods?
A: The GI Earthing Rod is mounted by driving or sinking it vertically into the ground. Connect the earth conductor using a suitable clamp at the top or side. Install with a chamber and cover for added protection and ease of access. Ensure proper testing for resistivity compliance (<5 ) post-installation as per standards.
Q: How does the rods coating thickness and galvanization improve its service life?
A: With a minimum hot dip galvanized coating of over 80 microns, these rods resist corrosion effectivelyeven in aggressive soils. This robust finish, combined with quality galvanization as per IS: 2629/BS: 729, assures a corrosion life expectancy of over 25 years, significantly reducing the need for replacement or maintenance.
