To have a good earth resistance has always been a problem in soils of poor electrical conductivity. This grounding improvement product is designed to reduce the soil resistivity locally and therefore improve the resistance of the grounding system.

What is Ash  “Gel Earthing Electrode”?       

       Maintenance Free Ash Gel Earthing Electrode by utilizing metal alloys and natural chemical compositions, the Gel Earthing Electrode is able to provide a multifaceted proactive earthing protection strategy. The Earthing Electrode is manufactured from custom-made G.I tubes to ensure maximum conductivity and prolonged service life. The Gel Earthing Electrode contains a conductor rich crystalline mixture that will protect the main earth electrode in the soil. This will ensure a highly conductive state for the fault current to pass on to earth.

       Earthing is very important area of electrical engineering maintenance. Generally people forget about earthing once it is installed, no one checks it unless and until something goes wrong and finds fault in earthing. In most cases it fails due to corrosion of the pipe. Therefore Earthing Electrode can be used for effective earthing, which will ensure safety to human life, appliances, machines, equipment's etc., Earthing is absolutely essential and it is mandatory by various electrical departments.

       In the present day high-tech scenario, most of the machines are solid state controlled, relay logic systems have changed over to solid state logic systems and microprocessor based control systems. For these controls, spike free and steady voltage is of high importance. A good and continuous effective earthing is of paramount importance. Ash  Gel Earthing Electrode is the most effective product for earthing.

       When one considers the added benefits of greater personal and equipment safety, reliability, current load capacity, discharge path for short circuits, fault current/ surge protection, stable earth values, low resistance, longer life, Maintenance Free Ash  Gel Earthing Electrode up to many years and is the most effective product for earthing.

       Thus Ash Gel Earthing Electrode is a totally maintenance free solution for many years and is suitable to any application requiring high performance earthing.

INSTALLATION

Installation method of Ash  Gel Earthing Electrode:

1.   Augur / Drill / Bore a hole of 8 - 10 Inch in diameter at a place where earthing is to be done, to a suitable depth of 2 meters       (Electrode Length)
2.   Place the Earthing Electrode inside the pit
3.   Mix the back fill compound nicely with the soil, which has been dug out.
4.   Re-Fill the empty space around the Earthing Electrode with this compound mix soil.
5.   While re-filling the space, pour adequate water in the PIT intermittently.
6.   Pack the soil around the Electrode tightly and nicely.
7.   Again pour adequate water at least 3 - 4 feet around the Earthing Electrode.
8.   Test the earth resistivity of the Electrode and if the result is satisfactory, then connect it with the equipments.
9.   If the result is not satisfactory, then allow the Electrode some time (2/3 Weeks) for setting of the soil and then check it &       connect it.
10. If the soil is of high resistivity i.e. Semi rocky or rocky soil, use back - fill compound only for refilling the PIT.

BACK FILL COMPOUND

      It is a specially developed compound which is capable of absorbing and retaining the moisture for a long time, it reduces the soil resistivity, to some extent it helps in faster dissipation of fault current, least fluctuation of ohmic value and it eliminates the use of salt, charcoal etc. around the earthing electrode.

CAUTION

1.   Do not drop the Earthing Electrode.
2.   Do not subject it to any kind of driving force.
3.   Do not hammer it while installing the Electrode.
4.   Do not use it other than the purpose of Earthing.
5.   Remove the thin plastic cover before installing the electrode.
6.   Always, place the Electrode keeping the connecting terminal on top.
7.   Apply petroleum jelly over the exposed part (Terminal) of the Electrodes to safe guard it against the corrosion.

FEATURES

1.   Revolution in Earthing Technology for Domestic, Industrial LT & HT Users.
2.   Very simple, totally maintenance free i.e. Fit & Forget Installation.
3.   Corrosion Proof, Weather Proof, Water resistant, Maintenance Free, Highly Durable, Life Saving & Cost Effective Solution for the       lifetime.
4.   Proper earthing ensures longer life for all electrical & electronic equipments.
5.   Fluctuation of OHMIC value is least (Within Safe Limits).
