Common Mistakes in your Earthing
In this blog, we will discuss some common mistakes most people make while installing earthing. So that you can avoid them. What is Earthing? Earthing, also known as grounding, is a process that connects your structure’s electrical system to the earth. This provides a low-resistance path for fault currents, protecting ...
Suspension Clamp Installation Checklist
Suspension clamps are used to suspend and grip neutral messenger cables in Low Voltage Aerial Bundled Cable System. They hold cables in place without damaging the insulation. A suspension clamp attaches to a bracket to support the cable’s weight and keep it secure along the route. Since suspension clamps carry ...

10 Ways to Check If Lightning Struck Your Structure
Recently, during the monsoon, a new LED failed. Everyone blamed the brand, but the real reason was a lightning strike. We all know how lightning strikes. It hits the tallest object and sends a high current into the ground. But even when it does not strike a structure directly, we ...
Types of Earthing Compound Powders
Earth resistance is the measure of how easily electric current can flow from an electrode into the ground. Lower resistance ensures the current dissipates faster and more safely during a fault. This resistance depends mostly on soil resistivity. To keep the value within safe limits, the soil around the electrode ...
UL Testing Process for Earthing & Lightning Protection Products
UL certification represents a recognized standard for safety and reliability in earthing and lightning protection. For products such as ground rods and clamps used in these systems, conducting thorough testing is essential. These components play a crucial role in safeguarding against electrical faults and lightning strikes, and their proper function ...
