Description
Copper-plated steel earthing rod with a standard 250 µm electrolytic copper coating. This rod, which is 1500 mm long, has an actual diameter of 17.2 mm and a nominal diameter of 19 mm, and weighs 2.780 kg. It conforms to UL SPEC 467, IEC 62305 (and by extension NF C 17:102:2011).
Extendable ground rods with threaded sleeves are an effective solution for lightning rod grounding, offering numerous advantages:
Modular Installation: These rods allow for adjustable depth installation. Thanks to the threaded sleeves, sections can easily be added or removed to achieve the required depth, which is advantageous in areas where the depth of the conductive layer varies.
– Convenient Transport and Handling: The sectional stakes are easier to transport and handle, especially in hard-to-reach or remote locations, compared to long, monolithic stakes.
– Robust and Reliable Connection: The use of threaded sleeves ensures a strong and durable connection between sections, guaranteeing optimal mechanical and electrical continuity for system performance.
– Adaptability to Various Terrains: These stakes allow for flexible installation on terrains with varying characteristics, offering the possibility of adjusting the stake length as needed.
– Simplified Maintenance: The modular design facilitates assembly, disassembly, inspection, and maintenance without requiring complete removal of the stake.
– Increased Durability: The robustness of the threaded sleeves makes these stakes particularly suitable for demanding environments, such as hard or rocky soils.
– Compliance with Safety Standards: These stakes meet current safety standards, ensuring reliable conduction of electricity due to lightning.
