Earth Rods
What Are Earth Rods?
Earth rods are made of different, distinct materials which come in different shapes and sizes. They are buried in the ground to provide low resistance for fault currents into the ground, protecting people, equipment and materials. The earth rods are commonly installed either directly outside a structure or building in the soil. The common placements would be near outside electrical meters, near the service panels, at building corners, open grounds or inspection pits. They protect the environment or structure from lightning strikes, stabilize voltage, and can be used for overhead or underground power distribution. The earth rods have a vital functionality and are installed into the ground for a long period of time; as such, they require to be effectively bonded to have high resistance against corrosion.
Galvanized and Mild Steel Earth Rods used for electrical grounding.
• Type: Solid / Pipe-type rods
• Purpose: Earth continuity for substation and pole lines
• Finish: Hot-Dip Galvanized

Types of earth rods
Above all, the advantages of MS Angle are widely known for its economical nature in the market. The numerous functional features are listed below:
Copper-bonded earth rods
These types of earth rods are cost-effective yet still function effectively, providing low resistance and having high corrosion resistance. Solid copper earth rods: They are commonly used in areas with high corrosion or in areas where a longer lifespan is required.
Stainless steel earth rods
These are usually selected when the environment may have problems of galvanic corrosion due to dissimilar metals buried together. Galvanized steel earth rods: This type of earth rod is cost-effective as well and provides effective functionality in providing low electrical resistance.
Benefits of earth rods
Earth rods can be effectively used for either underground or overhead networks for maximum earthing distribution and transmission. The earth rods are globally used because:-
- They provide maximum functionality at an initially cost-effective price.
- They can be easily installed, especially in stone-free areas, providing high corrosion resistance and low electrical resistance.
- They can be extended in order to achieve the level of electrical resistance.
- Their design makes it easy to transport them for long-distance installations.
