▲TECHNICAL INFORMATION
■CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD GROUNDING SYSTEM
●Good electrical conductivity
●Conductors capable of withstanding high fault currents
●Long life - at least 40 years
●Low ground resistance and impedance
◆The basic philosophy of any grounding installation should be an attempt to maximize the surface area of electrodes or conductors with the surrounding soil. Not only does this help to lower the earth resistance of the grounding system, but it also greatly improves the impedance of the grounding system under lightning surge conditions.
●Equipotential bonding
◆Equipotential bonding helps ensure that hazardous potential differences do not occur between different incoming conductors such as metallic water services, power systems, telecommunications systems and the local ground, and also minimizes step and touch potentials.
●Good corrosion resistance
◆The ground electrode system should be corrosion resistant, and compatible with other conductors that are buried and bonded to the ground system. Copper is by far the most common material used for grounding conductors. In general, some form of maintenance or inspection procedure should be adopted to ensure the long-term effectiveness of a grounding system.
●Electrically and mechanically robust and reliable
◆Mechanical coupling can be used to join ground conductors, but suffers from corrosion effects when dissimilar metals are involved. As well as mechanical strength, thermOweld® connections provide excellent low impedance, long life electrical connections with excellent corrosion resistance.
