Select The Appropriate Copper-clad Grounding Rod Specifications

The soil resistivity and composition directly affect the performance of the earth bonding rod grounding conductor during actual construction. If the resistivity measured on-site is high, the diameter or length of the ground rod 3 4 x 10 conductor should be appropriately increased to improve the conductivity interface between the grounding conductor and the soil.

The material and copper layer thickness of the ground rod 8 ft conductor are also considered. For the threaded copperbond earth rod conductor, the copper layer thickness is ≥0.3mm, and the tensile strength is ≥600N/mm². When selecting the specification, these values ​​must be compared with the site's corrosive environment and the risk of mechanical stress to determine whether to choose a larger or smaller diameter conductor.
