The importance of copper-plated ground rods in circuit transmission
Release time: 2023-12-28
The development of modern society cannot be separated from the support of a strong and powerful power system. Today's power transmission systems are getting bigger and bigger, and the transmission distance is getting farther and farther. This leads to how to ensure good power delivery under different climate environments and temperament conditions. The normal operation of the power transmission system is an issue that needs to be considered. In recent years, people have discovered that in order to effectively prevent circuit failures caused by lightning strikes, lightning protection ground rod products still need a lot of room for improvement. Many scholars believe that traditional ground rods should be replaced by new copper-plated ground rods.
Coastal areas are prone to lightning strikes, so the use of lightning protection ground rods is particularly important. However, due to climate and geological problems in coastal areas, such as humidity and rain, and high saline-alkali content in the land, ordinary grounding rods are very easy to rust and difficult to maintain function for a long time. Therefore, in response to this phenomenon, many people think that plating Copper ground rods may need to widely replace traditional ground rod materials. The resistance of ground rod products should generally be maintained within a small value to ensure that the lightning current is well directed to the ground. Compared with traditional hot-dip galvanized ground rods, it was found that the ground resistance of copper-plated ground rods is very small. Can meet the actual grounding effect. In comparison, the mechanical hardness, corrosion and rust resistance, and cost of copper-plated ground rods are superior to traditional ground rods. In actual installation configurations, they have considerable advantages. Therefore, copper-plated ground rods are widely used in coastal areas. The importance in the circuit transmission process is self-evident.
The construction and improvement of the power grid are still continuing, and people's demand for electricity is getting higher and higher. How to ensure the quality of power transmission is something that needs to be considered in a timely manner. The use of copper-plated grounding rods can ensure the regular operation of the power system to a large extent, and can reduce procurement and maintenance costs in practical applications, which has considerable economic benefits.
