Nowadays, the world is spending billions of dollars on building new solar plants. Some of them have very smart strategies to produce profitable electricity and to ensure that their plants are safe for the next 25 to 30 years. But what is their secret? Very simple: adhering to international quality ...
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 ...
In today’s blog, we will cover 20 standards that help you understand Earthing and Lightning Protection better. Everyone talks about electrical failures after they happen. But no one asks, “Was your system installed as per the standard?” These standards tell us where to crimp, how to install, what size to ...
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 ...
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 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 ...

In this trending era of technology and development, earthing in substations plays a vital role. An electrical power system comprises a network of electrical elements that can be used to generate, distribute and transmit electrical energy through transmission lines. A substation is a part of an electrical power system that ...
In this blog, we’re focusing on the essential differences between Galvanised Iron Pipe Earthing, also known as GI Earthing, and Copper Plate Earthing. By the end of this blog post, you will get a clear picture of: The Objective of Earthing Various Methods of Earthing Major Differences between GI Pipe ...
ESE Type Lightning Arrester, also known as Early Streamer Emission Lightning Arrester, protect buildings from direct lightning strikes. The goal of this device is simple. It increases the protection radius compared to conventional arresters, which reduces the number of arresters and down conductors needed for a building, all while ensuring ...
