Copper Bonded Rods

Copper-bonded ground rods have a high carbon steel core that is suitable for deep driving. A layer of nickel and then a coating of copper is electroplated on the steel core to provide corrosion protection This coating is not subject to the risk of bending or cracking.Copper bonded earth rods establish quality earthing systems in overhead, underground electricity distribution and transmission networks. They provide ground contact in all soil conditions like high voltage substations, towers, and power distribution applications.Well, because of copper's high conductivity, it can move electrical discharge to the ground more efficiently than any other metal. Furthermore, it won't rust even when buried into the ground for a long time. It is the reason why the earthing system is often also called the copper rod earthing system.
