The Influence Of On-site Soil Environment On The Selection Of Copper-clad Grounding Rods

Different soil types, humidity levels, and temperatures affect the physical behavior of copper bonded earthing rod when it enters the ground. It is necessary to assess the resistivity and wetting layer distribution of the underground soil in conjunction with specific geological conditions, which is helpful in determining the rationality of the burial depth and arrangement of copper bonded ground rods in the field.

Soil acidity and alkalinity, as well as the corrosive environment, also correspond to considerations regarding material durability. The thickness of the outer copper coating and the bonding quality of the steel core material directly affect the corrosion resistance of earthing rod copper in harsh underground environments. The focus on the overall structure and manufacturing process of copper rod for earthing in the project helps to analyze the impact of local corrosion factors on the service life of the buried equipment.
