| UES Brand Earthing Electrodes |
Traditional Method of Earthing |
| UES Brand-Earthing electrodes employ
hot dipped galvanized tubes from both
inside & outside. The wall thickness of
pipe employed is as per ISI G.I Pipe
depending upon the diameter of pipe, in 2
mtrs. & 3 mtrs. Length. As this is finished
product quality is assured. |
Traditionally people are using available sizes
of G. I. Pipe Copper plate, Strip, Rod, Pipe or
Cast Iron Pipes for earthing and the quality of
above may not be up to the mark. |
| G.I. Pipe does not act as Primary
electrode but hot dipped galvanized M.S.
Strip is used as the Primary electrode
encapsulated in the ISI G.I. pipe filled
with a special compound, which
increases the active functional life of the
earthing electrode with consistent results. |
The Conventional earthing acts as a Primary
Electrode, which gets corroded / Oxidized in a
short period as it is buried in the ground and
use of Salt & chemicals initiates the corrosion
and affects the performance. |
| We do not recommend the use of Salt &
Charcoal surrounding the UES. We have
developed a “Mineral Filling Compound”,
which is to be used surrounding the
Earthing Electrode to retain moisture and
delay the corrosion of the outer shell G. I.
Pipe for a very long period. |
The use of Salt & Charcoal surrounding the
earthing, gives a temporary solution for
getting low resistence, after some time the salt
starts to corrode the earthing pipe/electrode and increases
the resistance by manifold. |
| The fluctuation in ohmic value is least.
The earthing can be maintained just by
adequate watering around the UES in hot
summer seasons. |
To maintain low resistivity the earthing pit is to
be watered regularly, salt & charcoal is to be
replaced and copper plate is to be cleaned
and reinstalled meaning perinea maintenance
and expenses year after year. |
| The resistance is maintained at very low
levels due to the consistency in the
performance of the UES brand Earthing
Electrode, resulting in the dissipation of
fault current instantly. |
As the resistance increases, the dissipation of
the fault current is not proper; this damages
the equipments slowly & surely resulting in
high expenses by way of maintenance cost
and replacement of the equipments. |
| Replacement? Forget it! For a very long
period of time. |
Timely replacement of earthing is necessary
within short period of time. Recurring
expenses of installation go up with every
passing year. |
| The Earthing Electrodes UES brand
virtually requires no maintenance & the
replacement is not required for long
period of time. |
If proper maintenance & timely replacement is
not carried out then the earth pit will become
redundant & this could lead to great danger to
Equipment and Human Life. |
