What Factors Affect Local Soil Conditions & its Resistivity?
Achieving a good earth mostly depend on the local soil conditions. The electrical resistance of a conductor is its opposition to the passage of an electric current through it. The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area: The constant is called the resistivity and is […]
Save your Money on Earth Electrodes ……a Case for Copperbonded Steel Earth Rods
Quality earth rods are commonly made from either solid copper, stainless steel or copperbonded steel. The copperbonded steel cored rod is by far the most popular, due to its combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and comparatively low cost. Solid copper and stainless steel rods offer a very high level of corrosion resistance at the expense […]
