What is chemical earthing?

When we hear the word chemical earthing the first question that comes to our mind is what it is so in this article you will understand in a simple way.

Whenever we use chemical powder in place of salt and coal it is called chemical earthing and BENTONITE powder is used for chemical earthing the benefit of BENTONITE powder is it can maintain moisture levels in a region of rocky terrain and dry areas it is because it can work as backfill material to absorb moisture and lower the resistance to the earth

Commonly, In ordinary earthing coal and salt is used and placed on the top of the electrode.

 Types of Chemical Earthing used in Renown System

 1.      GI Earthing Electrode

2.      Pure Copper Electrode

3.      Copper Bonded Electrode

GI Earthing Electrode

 The work of GI earthing electrodes is to protect people from lightning current shock by conducting fault current safely to the ground. The process of GI earthing electrode is prepared when a zinc film is deposited over iron and this process is called Galvanization. Therefore, the GI earthing electrode is corrosion resistant.

 Features

●       The process of galvanization over iron makes the electrode corrosion resistant.

●       GI earthing electrodes are suitable for all types of soil.

●       Moisturization is not necessary periodically.

●       The dissipation of the current rate is high.

 

Advantages

●       GI earthing electrodes requires less maintenance.

●       Less space is required in GI earthing.

●       Fast installation and easy on site.

●       Necessity of moisturization is very less.

●       Low impedance while grounding.

 



Application

High-rise buildings protection.

Housing societies protection.

 

GI Earthing Electrode specifications-

Colour- Silver

Brand- Renown earth

Material- GI

Length of rod, shape and diameter is customizable

 

What is an earthing electrode?

Earthing electrodes depontentialize the electric discharge during lightning

 

What is a GI earthing electrode?

Galvanised Iron (GI) is made from the alloy of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). When the alloyed material is used as an earthing electrode, it is known as Galvanised Iron Earthing Electrode.

 

Pure Copper Electrode

The pure copper electrode is made up of pure copper from its ores. Due to very high conductivity, the pure copper electrode is considered one of the best electrodes in the market and that is the reason that it prefers over GI earthing electrode

 

Features

●       Copper is a less reactive reagent, therefore it is corrosion-resistant.

●       Fast current dissipation.

●       Plenty of free electrons in its outermost orbital due to high electrical conductivity.

 

Advantages

●       Pure copper electrodes can easily gel with any kind of soil.

●       It is maintenance-free.

●       Pure copper electrodes have a high electrical conductivity.

●       It has a high life expectancy.

 

Applications

It is used in housing societies and high-rise buildings.

 

Pure copper electrode specifications-

 

Shape, type and diameter- As per requirement

Colour- Brown

Brand- Renown Earth

Usage/ Application- Earthing

Type- Earthing Electrode

 

The process to clean copper electrodes?

Rinse the surface for minutes with distilled water.

 

Copper Bonded Electrode

With the help of electrolytic cell copper bonded electrodes are manufactured by the process called electroplating.

This process includes mild steel coated with copper in an electrolytic cell. Copper bonded helps to pass fault current in the ground. Copper bonded electrodes protect the life of humans from electric shock and electrical damage to the equipment due to lightning. Copper bonded electrode presents excellent endurance against oxidation and it is based on global technology and it is an extremely exceptional product. It is more useful than simple GI electrodes. Copper bonded electrode coating thickness confirms stable performance, which is why it will be a cost-effective option for users.

 Features

●       It has a high life expectancy.

●       100-micron copper is coated on the electrode.

●       High current dissipation.

●       High electrical conductance.

 

Advantages

Good for every kind of soil.

Long-life duration.

No recurrent maintenance is required.

Less space is required for installation.

Why galvanizing the Chemical Earthing materials is necessary?

Image
T he method of transferring electric charges into the ground using low resistance material to achieve immediate discharge of electrical energy. Low resistance earthing wire is used to offer the resistance channel for fault current leakage is called Earthing. Chemical Earthing is a type of electrical earthing in which chemical powder, coal, and salt are used. We employ chemical powder instead of only coal and salt in this chemical earthing. Galvanizing of Earthing Material is Integral Electricity is evaluated as the most fundamental of everything required in the present current life. Without power, living and enduring are simply inconceivable. Over the most recent few decades, electrical designing has fostered a ton, subsequently offering individuals with better quality devices and materials that make their lives helpful and easy. Even though power is said to have made lives a lot simpler, a few things need to be thought about for safe use. One fundamental piece of the electrical fo...

You will Completely Surprise after Knowing Amazing Effects of Earthing System

Image
Lightning is more of electricity that strikes in cloudy weather and changing weather. Every second he tries to hit the ground a hundred times. If it hits a structure in a building, it could cause electrical shocks and cause machinery and equipment to malfunction. Cable phones, wires, TV cables, electrical appliances, computers, metal doors, etc. that come from electricity can cause damage. If the light comes into contact with a higher voltage line, the danger of high voltage may be transmitted to the electricity distribution system. In principle, every electrical installation must have a good and reliable earthing system. Good earthing systems are essential for -Safety of human and animal life. -Limited damage to electrical equipment in the event of a faulty flash. -Timely operation of protective equipment. The resistance of the ground electrode depends only on the resistivity of the ground and the type of electrodes used. Typically, a cast-iron GI plate/pipe is used as the ele...
