An earth rod is a copper-bonded steel rod, typically 16 mm in diameter and 2.4 meters long, driven into the ground to provide a safe, low-resistance path for electrical fault currents to dissipate into the earth, ensuring protection against electric shock and equipment damage. It is an essential part of grounding systems, designed to meet resistance values below 10 ohms for effective safety and compliance with electrical standards.

Description

An earth rod is a metal rod, typically made of copper-bonded steel, driven into the ground to provide a low-resistance path for electrical fault currents to safely dissipate into the earth, ensuring protection against electric shock and equipment damage. It is a critical component in electrical grounding systems and lightning protection, helping maintain system safety and compliance with electrical standards.

Specification of Earth Rod:

  • Material: Copper-bonded steel

  • Diameter: 16 mm (5/8 inch)

  • Length: 2.4 meters (8 feet)

  • Surface: Copper bonded for corrosion resistance

  • Resistance: Target earth resistance below 10 ohms

  • Installation: Vertically driven into soil, connected to grounding conductor with suitable clamps

  • Standard Compliance: As per relevant national or international grounding standards (e.g., IEC 62561, BS EN 50164)
