The working principle of copper-clad steel grounding rod
Release time: 2023-05-06

Regardless of the external installation of lightning rods also room mounted lightning arrester its ultimate goal is to invade the lightning energy or internal surge (overvoltage) to guide the leakage of current
Into the ground to avoid lightning damage, so the final drain into the ground is the key to the entire lightning protection project, grounding is to ensure that the current is safe and rapid leakage into the ground, an important link.
Grounding is an important link to ensure the safe and rapid discharge of current into the ground.
        Grounding rod is in order to make full contact with the conductor and the earth to ensure the smooth drainage of the current is indispensable one of the grounding equipment. The material of the grounding rod is generally copper-clad steel, such as steel.
Generally copper-clad steel, such as copper-plated steel surface, that is, the high conductivity of copper and both the characteristics of steel, there are many companies produce this grounding rod.
Copper-clad steel grounding rod is suitable for general environments and humid, saline, acidic soil and chemical corrosion media produce special environments, generally do not do anti-corrosion
Treatment. There are no special requirements for soil, the smaller the soil resistivity, the better. If the conductivity of the soil can not meet the requirements of use, generally can deepen the buried depth of
degree.

       As the active ion content in the soil is one of the factors affecting the grounding resistance, many soils contain active electrolytic ion compounds are relatively rare, simple grounding body will not be
Few, simple grounding body will not meet the grounding requirements. After experiments and comparisons, the reversible slow-release filler added to the grounding rod. This filler
has the characteristics of water absorption, water release, reversible. This reversible reaction effectively ensures the effective temperature of the environment within the shell layer, ensuring the grounding resistance
resistance is stabilized. The filler is non-toxic, and in the long-term cooperation with the metal electrode, it has achieved better results in the generation of ions and the prevention of corrosion of copper alloy.
In the long-term cooperation with the metal electrode, the filler achieves better results in both ion generation and prevention of corrosion on copper alloy. After the ions generated in this way absorb the earth's moisture, the active electrolytic ions can be released into the surrounding soil through deliquescence.
After absorbing the earth moisture, the ions generated in this way can release the active electrolytic ions into the surrounding soil through the deliquescence effect, making the grounding rod become an ion generating device, thus improving the surrounding soil quality to meet the grounding requirements.
