I want to install a proper ground system for surge protection..im using a 4ft solid copper rod ..i had 5ft deep of chipping filling which i removed ..but when i finally reached the soil it's very rocky and there are large rocks underneath..so my question is what if i fill up everything with soil rather than chipping this time..will my 4 ft rod work? As long as the ohms are 25 or below ..would that mean it worked?
I will need more measurements and details for giving you a proper answers, let's discuss this on a call. You can book a meeting with our engineers, email your preferred time and query at sales@axis-india.com
Hey Ezekiel, Charcoal and Salt are replaced by Earth Enhancing Compound. Watch this video, to understand the difference between Charcoal Earthing & Chemical Earthing✅ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ha_grg4iizw.html
@@taiwolawal6940 Great! Then you have both options Earth Mat and External Earthing. But if you are going with an earth mat, you will need a professional team and there might be coordination difficulties between civil and electrical work. However, our engineers will help you in both cases, please share your details at marketing@axis-india.com
Charcoal and salt were traditional methods of earthing, you should use Earth Enhancing Compound for better results. Watch this video to understand better - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ha_grg4iizw.html
Hi, It is not necessary, it depends on the pre-assessment results of the soil resistivity. It is advisable to be used only if it is needed as per the design calculations. Discuss this in detail with our experts at sales@axis-india.com
Hi Elohor, here's a video that will help you understand the role of salt, water and coal in Earthing ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ha_grg4iizw.html
We will create a video on that topic soon. In the meantime, you can refer to this guide on Earthing Installation ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HB3jmH2rz94.htmlsi=q3zNHlX_DbivNqmD
Hi Bhuvana, Cost, longevity, and conductivity vary by rod type. Solid copper is costliest but most conductive. Stainless steel lasts longest. Fault current capacity is material-dependent, affecting sizing.
Hey Dahiru! Thanks for the digestion. We’ve already done this video: Earthing for Distribution Transformers - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yyhnZGzusuA.html
Previously, common salt and charcoal were used to fill earth pits to reduce soil resistivity and increase moisture content. But now Earth Enhancing Compounds reduce soil resistivity to a larger extent compared to salt and charcoal. For further queries, you can connect with our engineers at sales@axis-india.com.
