Product Description
Product Description
Copper Coated Earth Rods are grounding rods manufactured from galvanized steel with an additional copper coating. These rods serve as a critical component in grounding systems, designed to protect electrical infrastructure against electrical surge damage and to safely channel the current from lightning strikes into the earth.
Structural Features
- Core Material: Made from galvanized steel for strength and initial corrosion resistance.
- Copper Coating: An outer layer of copper enhances conductivity and significantly improves the rod’s resistance to corrosion, extending its service life.
- Conductivity: The copper coating provides superior electrical conductivity, which is essential for efficient grounding.
Installation Method
- Grounding System: Installed as part of a comprehensive grounding system to ensure a safe and effective path for electrical discharge.
- Direct Burial: Typically driven directly into the ground in multiple locations to create a grounding network.
- Connection: Connected to the electrical system’s ground terminal using appropriate grounding cables or wires.
Applicable Environment Conditions
- Outdoor Conditions: Specifically designed for outdoor use, where they are exposed to soil and various weather conditions.
- Soil Types: Effective in a range of soil types, although soil resistivity can affect the grounding resistance.
- Lightning Protection: Particularly important in areas prone to lightning strikes to provide a safe discharge path for the electrical current.

Product Advantages
- 1.
High electrical conductivity: copper is an excellent conductor, can quickly guide the current to the earth, to achieve the balance of potential. This high conductivity ensures the steady flow of current through the system, quickly directs lightning strikes or other electrical disturbances underground, reduces the electrical system resistance, and improves the reliability of the system. - 2.Corrosion resistance and stability: By plating a layer of anti-corrosion metal on the surface of copper, greatly improves the corrosion resistance of copper ground rod. This enables the “golden bridge” connecting the earth to maintain long-term stability in harsh environments, and provides reliable and long-life service for the power system.
- 3.Light and flexible design: compared with the traditional grounding equipment, copper grounding rod adopts light and flexible design, simplifies the connection process. its light weight makes the system construction more convenient, reduces the burden of the building structure, improves the installation efficiency, provides more flexibility for connecting the earth.
- 4.Environmental sustainability: copper is a recyclable material, its production and use have less impact on the environment. The choice of copper grounding rod is also in line with today’s society’s concern for environmental protection, shows the positive support for the concept of environmental protection and sustainable development.

Application Places
Copper-coated earth rods protect buildings and equipment from electrical faults and lightning strikes. They are highly effective in grounding electrical currents and diverting dangerous surges away from structures. Copper-coated earth rods are easy to install, maintain and can last decades when used properly.
