A grounding rod acts as the only electrical path to dissipate static discharge voltage, such as lightning, into the Earth. And when this path starts to break down, the static discharge has nowhere to go, putting the whole system at risk. A well-designed grounding or earthing system is essential for any electrical installation to avoid dangers associated with transient or overvoltage. We offer you our patented Chem-Rods along with a full line of standard ground testing services and more, ensuring a solution tailored just for your needs.

Introduction A grounding rod acts as the only electrical path to dissipate static discharge voltage, such as lightning, into the Earth. And when this path starts to break down, the static discharge has nowhere to go, putting the whole system at risk. www.lightningprotection.com
The function of a grounding rod The Earth grounding system uses a wire to connect the service box to Earth using grounding rods. This is the path for lightning or static electricity. Through this direct physical connection, the earth acts as a path of least resistance, preventing a person or equipment from becoming the shortest path and suffering an electric shock. A well-designed grounding or earthing system is essential for any electrical installation to avoid dangers associated with transient or overvoltage. Good earthing protects both equipment and people against the dangerous step and touch voltage. www.lightningprotection.com
A good grounding rod aims: • To provide safety for people by limiting the overvoltage • It protects the assets of a company by providing a low impedance path for the static electricity to pass • It minimizes the electromagnetic noise www.lightningprotection.com
Our Chem Grounding Rods are: • Efficient – these rods reduce risk more efficiently than other grounding rods by providing the most efficient earth interface. • Give consistent performance – they are highly resistant to corrosion, making them more dependable and giving them a longer service life • Is economical – using Chem-Rods instead of traditional grounding rods lowers overall costs and improves protection. This is because one Chem-Rod can replace as many as 10 conventional rods. • Low maintenance – it is designed for easy inspection and refill. They come with a standard removable cap and access cover for ease of maintenance of the ground salt charge. www.lightningprotection.com
