"SOR Enterprise" are one of the
prominent manufacturers and suppliers of a comprehensive array of all types of
Electrical Earthing Accessories, and Lighting Productions. SOR Enterprise is
manufacturer of maintenance free earthing electrodes at Ahmedabad, India.
The process of connecting metal parts of all
the electrical device and equipment to huge mass of earth by a wire having
negligible resistance is called earthing.
What is Earthing
Electrodes?
A metallic electrode or plate which is buried
in the earth (underground) and it is the last part of the electrical earthing
system. A metallic plate, pipe or rode can be used as an earth electrode which
has very low resistance and carry the fault current safely towards ground
(earth).
Earthing Electrodes is underground metal (plate)
part of the earthing system which is connected with earthing lead is called
earthing electrode.
Earthing Electrode The resistance
of a ground electrode has 3 basic components:
- The resistance of the ground electrode itself and the connections to the electrode.
- The contact resistance of the surrounding earth to the electrode.
- The resistance of the surrounding body of earth around the ground Electrode.
Objective of
the Earhting
- Provide alternative path.
- Ensure that all uncover conductive parts do not reach a dangerous potential.
- Maintain the voltage at any part of an electrical system at a known value so as to prevent over current or excessive voltage on the appliances or equipment.
Method of
Earthing
Tow type of method
