Copper-clad steel earth rods are widely used in grounding and earthing systems to provide a safe path for electrical currents to dissipate into the ground.
1. Material Composition
- Core: High-strength low-carbon steel for mechanical durability.
- Cladding: Electrically conductive copper layer (typically 0.25mm–0.5mm thick) bonded to the steel core.
2. High Conductivity & Strength
- Combines the electrical properties of copper with the tensile strength of steel.
- Can be driven deep into the ground without bending or breaking.
