Wira Earthing Electrode | Conventional Earthing Electrode | |
1 | Wira Earthing Electrode made of mild steel pipes having galvanization of 100 microns. | Commercial grade G.I. Pipe with galvanization of 20-40 microns. |
2 | Wira Earthing Electrode pipe in pipe electorde is filled with
ANTI CORROSIVE AND HIGHLY CONDUCTIVE MIXTURE (ACCM). |
Single hollow pipe used for earthing |
3 | Wira Earthing Electrode uses anti corrosive minerals for faster dissipation of fault current and also to retain moisture in the earth pit. | Salt and charcoal are used for back filling which require maintenance regularly |
4 | Wira Earthing Electrode has an advantage of galvanization
of 80-100 microns on the outer pipe and 150-200
microns on the inner pipe to increase the life of the electrode. |
G.I. pipe galvaniszation upto 40 micons and is prone to corrosion within months of installation |
5 | Wira Earthing Electrode electrodes require minimum maintenance, once installed. | Regular watering is required for conventional earthing and due to this faster corrosion takes place. |
6 | Wira Earthing Electrode compound is made of minerals and hydroscopic compounds hence retains the moisture and increases the conductivity. | Salt tends to dissolve due to regular water pouring activity and the earth pit becomes dry and does not conduct the fault current |
