If you are using a
copper plated steel grounding rod in a construction project, you should first check that it is UL listed. This certification ensures that the rod has the same amount of zinc coating and the same service life. The UL mark, however, will do little good once the rod is buried. Its long-term performance is the more important factor.
Copper-plated steel electrode rods are a great choice for grounding systems because they are extremely durable and corrosion-resistant. To ensure that they are effective, grounding rods must be spaced equally and connected by thick cables. If the installation is on a building's exterior, the cable connection should match the material section of the down conductor arrester. Adding enhancer compounds to the soil can also improve the conductivity of the rod. The additives can be powdered or liquid.
Copper-plated steel ground rods are typically used in buildings as a protective wall or roof. They are also commonly used in communications and lightning protection zones. Copper plated steel rods are made of high-quality steel that has a low carbon content. In addition, they have an even, uniform copper layer with a thickness of 0.254mm.
Copper Clad Steel Earthing Round Wire Is Manufactured From High Tensile Low Carbon Steel By Molecularly Bonding 99.9% Pure Electrolytic Copper, Which Ensuring A Long Lasting, Molecular Bond Between The Copper Layer And The Steel Core. The Copper Coating Will Not Slip Or Tear When Driven, Nor Will It Crack If The Rod Is Bent. The Tough, Carbon Steel Core Has Good Characteristics For Deep Driving. The Tough, Carbon Steel Core Has Good Characteristics For Deep Driving. These Products Are Capable Of Being Bent 90 Degrees At A Maximum Radius Of 100mm With No Copper Fracture And With No Effect On The Bond Between The Steel Core And The Copper Layer.
