Copper-clad steel grounding wire has good corrosion resistance, can be deeply buried, and has a more economical price than pure copper. Although angle steel or other steel metal grounding electrodes are cheap, they have poor dissipation performance and corrosion resistance, and their service life is relatively short. However, high-demand grounding projects generally have design requirements, requiring the use of some copper-plated galvanized grounding electrodes or pure copper grounding electrodes. For grounding projects with particularly high requirements or complex environments, IEA ion grounding electrodes may also be selected, because IEA ion grounding electrodes have the effect of releasing active ions, which can continuously reduce soil resistivity and are a better vertical grounding system.
First of all, let's understand the basic connotation of the ground rod. It is also called the ground electrode or the ground grid. Its main function is to reduce the resistivity of the electrical appliance, so that the electrical conductivity of the electrical appliance is enhanced when it is grounded. The person in charge of the raw material base of copper-plated round steel showed us that the first thing a high-quality ground rod must do is to have a high usage rate, so it needs good corrosion resistance and a very low damage rate. To be the protector of all kinds of electrical appliances.
