What is Maintenance Free Earthing?
Earthing, also known as grounding, is the practice of transferring electrical charges to the ground through low-resistance cables or rods to quickly discharge any stored energy. There are two main types of earthing: maintenance-free earthing and

Introduction to the basics of Lightning Protection and Earthing and the Standards (IEC 62305 and UL 467)
Importance of Earthing & Lightning Protection for Building Lightning is an awe-inspiring natural phenomenon that can discharge up to 200,000 amps in a fraction of a second. A direct strike can have devastating effects on people, buildings and the natural environment. Especially during stormy seasons, we witness numerous accounts of ...
Myths of Chemical Earthing
Myth 1: Chemical Filled Electrodes are long lasting and maintenance free Corrosion resistance is one of the primary requirements from an effective electrode – it will determine the working life of the entire earthing system. Detecting failed earth electrodes is not easy since they are buried far underground. Two long ...
Cable Cleats and their importance to Cable Management
This short blog aims to guide you through the importance of Cable Cleats as an accessory to professional cable management. Electromagnetic fields caused by the flow of current through cables induce electromechanical forces on the cables themselves and their support structures. During a power surge or short circuit, this can ...
Advantages of Aerial Bundled Cables for Power Distribution
Aerial Bundled Cable (ABC) is an innovative concept for Over Head (OH) power distribution. When compared to conventional bare conductor OH distribution systems, ABC provides higher safety and reliability, lower power losses, stability in voltage regulation and ultimate system economy by reducing installation, maintenance and operation costs. This system is ...
