  • Rod-to-Tape/Wire Clamps: Specialized clamps for connecting flat tapes or stranded wires to earth rods.
  • Driving Studs & Caps: For protecting the rod while driving into the ground.
  • Inspection Pit Clamps: For connections inside inspection pits.
• Earthing Conductors & Tapes:
  • Copper Earthing Tape: Bare and PVC-covered copper tape for reliable earth grids and connections.
  • Stranded Copper Conductors: Bare and insulated, for flexible earthing applications.
  • Earth Plates: Solid copper or copper-bonded steel plates for increased surface area contact in challenging soil.
• Earthing Accessories:
  • Inspection Pits/Earth Pits: Heavy-duty, UV-stabilized plastic or concrete inspection chambers for easy access to earth rod connections for testing and maintenance.
  • Ground Enhancement Material (GEM): Low-resistivity, non-corrosive conductive concrete or granular material to improve the performance of earthing systems in high-resistivity soil.
  • Exothermic Welding Materials (Cadweld Type): Permanent, molecular bonding for superior electrical connections that won't loosen, corrode, or degrade over time. Includes weld metal, molds, and ignition tools.
  • Bonding Clamps & Jumpers: For equipotential bonding of metallic structures and services.

III. Equipotential Bonding Components

Crucial for ensuring all metallic parts within a structure are at the same electrical potential, preventing dangerous step and touch voltages.
