What is Chemical Earthing and why should one Switch-Over to it soon

 With the evolution of Fast Innovations & new technologies, the need for advanced and superior Earthing had gone many-fold years ago. Many of us switched over to advance Chemical Earthing years ago but a lot have still to switch over to Chemical Earthing. It’s high time for all of us to switch over to advance Chemical Earthing to protect our lives and facilities from electrical shocks, appliance failures, damages, fire, and other losses.

The wisdom lies in turning to Chemical Earthing soon without fail.

What is Chemical Earthing all about —

Chemical Earthing uses advanced chemicals such as Silica, Bentonite, Marcontile, etc., as Back Fill Compound to keep the soil resistance around the Earthing Electrodes minimum at all times from Peak summers to extrem-dry environmental conditions and in all areas from Stony dry lands to High range mountains, hilltops, etc. and that too without any addition of water or chemicals after the installation of chemical earthing.

Chemical Earthing provides any type of earthing resistance from 0.2 Ohms to less than 5 ohms, depending upon one’s requirement. For critical applications, 0.2 Ohms is usually desirable, whereas less than 5 ohms is good for general applications, and less than 10 Ohms is good enough for remote applications.

Chemical Earthing is installed in compliance with IS3043–1987 and IEC

60364. It is done using different types of Earthing Electrodes (discussed in the end) and advanced Back Fill Compounds depending on the type of soil and the desired earthing resistance requirements. It is the best fit for all different types of climates and environments.

Chemical Earthing is used for a wide range of applications and facilities like residences, offices, schools, institutions, commercial complexes, industries, hospitals, data centers, military installations, airports, oil and gas plants, refineries, solar panels, substations, etc. From a small single-load application to a massive load-consuming industry or some other facility, all require Chemical Earthing.

How Chemical Earthing is Done —

Chemical Earthing requires the installation of an earthing electrode in the ground after digging a 1 to 3 meters hole of 4–5 inches dia. The earthing pit, is then filled and packed with the advanced Back Fill Compound. The Back Fill Compound can be added to the dug hole pit in the form of slurry or is added dry and then watered to make it stick around the earthing electrode to hold it tightly from all sides. The installed Earthing Electrode is then connected to the application/load by GI or Copper Strip. The GI or Earthing Strip connects the Earthing Electrode Terminal emerging out of the ground on its top to the load/application.

The Chemical Earthing done is finally covered with the FRP/Poly Plastic or Cast-Iron Cover to prevent all sorts of vandalism with the installed earthing. The Pit Cover, not only protects the installed earthing but also adds to the aesthetic beauty of the surroundings.

Why one should switch over to Chemical Earthing-

1) Conventional Earthing is no more effective: Conventional Earthing is no more effective for the type of Electrical appliances and products we are using nowadays. The type of low-resistance earthing in demand nowadays can not be met by using charcoal and salt as chemicals.

2) Low Service Life: Conventional Earthing has a life span of just 3–4 years when compared to the longer service life of 10–15 years of chemical earthing. This results in installing earthing after every 3–4 years of its installation. This not only leads to additional costs every time but also leads to the wastage of time and effort.

3) Unstable and Erratic Earthing Resistance: Conventional Earthing provides an unstable earthing resistance which varies regularly with every change in the environmental and climatic conditions. On the other hand, chemical earthing provides a stable and low earthing resistance throughout its life.

4) Life-long headache of adding water and chemicals: Conventional Earthing regularly requires pouring water and adding charcoal to the earthing pit to keep earthing resistance under control, whereas chemical earthing is of install and forget type. There’s no requirment for adding any chemical or water in Chemical Earthing, and it is perfectly maintenance free.

5) Spoils Water Table and pH of the Soil: Conventional Earthing not only spoils the water table under the ground, but also makes the surrounding soli corrosive and spoils its pH value. The corroded soil corrodes the earthing electrode or earthing plate inside the ground.

We, True Power, are India’s №1 Chemical Earthing and Lightning Arresters manufacturer. We manufacture all types of Earthing Electrodes like — Pure Copper Earthing Electrodes, Copper Bonded Earthing Electrodes, GI Earthing Electrodes, and Pipe-in-Pipe Earthing Electrodes/rods of different diameters and lengths to meet all varying earthing resistance needs.
