Scope: Earth rods constructed of austenitic stainless steel according to British specifications. Stainless steel rods are comparable to copper rods; however, they are more anodic than copper and can be used when galvanic corrosion is a concern. The current carrying capacity of stainless-steel rods is lesser as compared to copper. ...
A lightning arrester protects the electrical network and the structures from lightning. When lightning strikes, it creates massive destruction and damages the equipment. A lightning arrester or a surge diverter protects the equipment at the substation. The lightning arrester bifurcates the abnormal high voltage to the ground without affecting the ...
Lightning – a natural phenomenon as breathtaking as it is deadly. It’s a spark that bridges the gap between negatively and positively charged sections of a cloud, and its power can cause significant damage, especially to tall buildings. However, thanks to modern engineering, we have a defence mechanism against this ...
Lightning arrester rods, surge arresters, or lightning conductors are metal rods installed on a building for lightning protection. They protect structures or substations from the travelling waves of lightning and divert the abnormally high voltage to the ground. They are made from copper and brass alloy which are good conductors ...
Earthing is an important part of electrical distribution lines. Installation of a protective grounding on the power line structure creates a safe work zone. It neutralises leakages or short-circuit current and offers a simple and easy path for the current to the earth with zero damage potential. Importance of Earthing ...
The fundamental role of any substation earthing is to dissipate the short circuit current into the earth without drying out the area and to limit the potential gradient throughout the substation to maintain the step and touch voltages within safe values. There are two features considered during the design of ...
Follow us on LinkedIn for regular updates on our Earthing and Lightning Protection Products! Cable lugs help in the easy installation of cable termination and aid in the repair and maintenance of electrical devices or cables. Commonly, the lugs are used to connect one cable with another or to connect ...
In an electrical substation, Lightning Protection System is important for the smooth operation of electrical networks during lighting strikes. Lightning strikes can cause severe damages due to the surge of extra voltage during a strike that is injected into a transformer. As a result, a strike and switching can cause ...
Follow us on LinkedIn for regular updates on our products! The year 2020 started just like any other year, our team was in the middle of our business plan exercises, were trying to ship out orders before the end of the financial year and overall we were looking forward to ...
Follow us on LinkedIn for regular updates on everything about Lightning Arresters! Well, we all are aware of the lightning strike that occurs during the rainy season. But are we aware of the fact that we need to protect our structure and electrical system from it too? Yes, there is ...
