Description
Designed for use with standard 19mm diameter earthing rods. Made from high mechanical strength copper alloy, these sleeves are corrosion resistant, weigh 0.150 kg and comply with UL SPEC 467, IEC 62305 (and by extension NF C 17:102:2011) standards. These sleeves are essential for ensuring strong, durable connections in grounding and lightning protection installations.
Their primary function is to securely connect multiple sections of earthing rods together. Here are their specific uses:
– Extension of Earthing Rods: They allow you to assemble and extend the length of the earthing rods, by connecting them end to end. This is particularly useful when the length of a single rod is not sufficient to achieve the depth required for effective grounding.
– Assurance of a Strong Connection: The sleeves ensure that the connections between rod sections are robust and reliable, which is crucial for maintaining the electrical and mechanical integrity of the entire earthing system.
– Ease of Installation: They simplify the process of installing earthing rods, allowing quick and efficient connection of the different sections.
– Corrosion Resistance: Made from copper alloy, these sleeves provide excellent corrosion resistance, which is essential for outdoor installations exposed to various environmental conditions.
– Compliance with Standards: Compliant with international standards UL SPEC 467, IEC 62305 and NF C 17-102:2011, these sleeves ensure that the installation meets safety and efficiency requirements.
In summary, threaded rod coupling sleeves are a key component for establishing effective and durable grounding in lightning protection systems, ensuring continuity and strength of connections between earthing rods.
