Copper Tape

High-conductivity, annealed, soft drawn flat copper earthing tape, manufactured in accordance with BS1432-C101. Suitable for use within a variety of earthing (grounding) and lightning protection applications.
All copper tapes are annealed for ultimate ductility and feature radiused edges to aid on-site installation. Available in a range of coil lengths depending upon the tape dimensions, we also offer a cutting service where tapes are sold by the metre.
For applications where different metals will be in contact with each other or areas of high soil contamination, we would recommend fully tinned copper tapes. Lead-sheathed (Pb) 25 x 3mm copper tape is also available for areas of high soil contamination.

Earth Chamber

Precast Earth Pit inspection Chamber are load rated to Residantal ,Industrial, Commercial suitable for most types of earthing and lightning protection installations.
Lids are available in 2 types, one with a central lifting eye for industrial applications. The other with a unique plain lid Non trip surface, ideal for public and pedestrian areas, shopping arcades, supermarket forecourts and cinemas where trip hazards are a potential problem.
The base is designed to accept a diagonal earth bar with 5 or 7 terminations.
If an alternative high load inspection pit is required the Heavy Duty Inspection Pit is recommended. Ideal for areas where high loads or small wheel vehicles.

Earthing Rods & Accessories

Copper earth rods  offer the contractor the best and most economical earth rods for structural earthing and lightning protection – earth rods are designed for use where extremely high corrosion resistance and long service life are required.
Earth rods and their fittings are used to provide the interface to ground in all soil conditions in order to achieve satisfactory earthing systems in overhead and underground electricity distribution and transmission networks – providing high fault current capacity on low, medium and high voltage substations, towers and power distribution applications.
Copper earth rods are produced from solid copper bar and are internally threaded for jointing – when deep driving a solid copper earth rod the usual practice is to insert the rod into a bore hole and backfill with either low resistance earthing compound or Bentonite.
Copper earth rods provide effective earthing for all site conditions and are manufactured from 99.9% copper with excellent corrosion resistance and very high tensile strength.
Earth rods take advantage of lower resistivity soils at greater depths than normal excavation will allow – used in conjunction with copper earth plates they are used to attain an effective earth in shallow soils or in locations with large amounts of buried services eg high voltage switching positions.
Other type of earthing rods are-
• Solid Copper
• Copperbond
• Galvanised Steel
• Stainless Steel
