Copper Clad Steel Ground Rod- Advantages

Copper clad steel ground rods, also known as copper bonded steel grounding rods, are currently widely used in the field of lightning protection and grounding, it can effectively protect electrical equipment facilities as well as people from lightning strikes and electromagnetic interference. What are the advantages of copper clad steel ground rods that integrate many advantages? 

The copper clad steel earth rod electrode process is produced by cold rolling and hot drawing. This process not only overcomes the defects of the poor bonding force of the electroplating method and the casing cladding method, but also ensures a longer molecular connection between the copper layer and the steel core. It has the advantages of thick copper layer, low resistance, strong corrosion resistance, high strength, easy installation, and good electrical connection performance. It can effectively use the low soil resistivity of the deep layer to reduce the grounding resistance and ensure the product life span of more than 40 years.

   Because the copper bonded steel ground rod has good electrical conductivity, high mechanical strength, especially the copper layer coated with the outer layer has good corrosion resistance, it has been widely used in grounding devices. At present, the relevant standards of our country all stipulate that the grounding conductor can be copper bonded/clad steel ground rod. copper clad steel earthing rods replace section steel or galvanized angle steel as grounding conductors, and have been increasingly accepted, adopted, valued and popularized by design institutes and engineering construction units. It has been widely used in the grounding devices of power transmission and transformation and communication lines, power stations, buildings and antennas. It can also be used in the grounding system of electronic equipment such as computers. It can also be used with lightning rods (lightning rods, lightning conductors) and down conductors. Form a lightning protection grounding device.

Characteristics and technical advantages of copper clad steel ground rods:

1. Unique manufacturing process: The copper clad steel ground rod adopts a cold-rolled and hot-drawn production process to realize the metallurgical welding between copper and steel. So as to ensure the perfect combination of copper layer and steel layer, it can be drawn arbitrarily like drawing a single metal without disjointing, peeling and cracking.
2. Superior corrosion resistance: the copper clad steel ground rod composite interface adopts high temperature welding, the surface copper layer is &#;0.254mm, there is no residue, and the joint surface will not be corroded; the surface copper layer is thick, the corrosion resistance is strong, and the service life is Long, can reduce the labor intensity of maintenance to a great extent.
3. Low construction cost: Compared with the traditional construction method of pure copper ground rod and grounding strap, the cost of copper clad steel ground rod is greatly reduced. (And it has the strength that the pure copper ground rod can't reach)
4. Wide range of application: Copper clad steel ground rod is suitable for grounding construction under different soil moisture, temperature, PH value and resistivity changes.
5. The connection is safe and reliable: the copper clad steel ground rod uses a special connecting pipe or hot-melt welding, and the joint is firm and stable.
6. Convenient and quick construction: The copper clad steel ground rod has complete accessories and convenient installation, which can effectively improve the construction speed.
7. Increasing the grounding depth: The special connection and transmission method of the copper clad steel ground rod can be more than 35 meters underground to meet the low resistance requirements of special occasions.
8. Better electrical performance: The excellent electrical conductivity of the copper material on the surface of the copper-clad steel grounding electrode makes its own resistance value much lower than that of conventional materials.
