Overview

CHEM ROD KIT VERT 20FT 1/0 PIGTAIL DOWN

Chemical ground electrodes provide a low impedance ground in locations of high soil resistivity and dry soil conditions. Used in conjunction with a bentonite backfill and nVent ERICO’s unique GEM material, the nVent ERICO chemical ground rod electrode systems provide a method to improve soil resistivity directly surrounding the electrode, and can replace multiple conventional ground rods. It maintains a low ground resistance, that dissipates lightning energy and other dangerous electrical fault currents, even in sandy or rocky soil conditions.

Features & Benefits

  • Contains natural electrolytic salts, which permeate into the surrounding soil to condition the soil and increase its conductivity
  • Easy connection to ground electrode conductor using the factory provided pigtail (up or down orientation)
  • Provides decades of reliable services due to rugged construction and high-quality metals with a 30-year minimum service life
  • 2-1/8" (54 mm) outside diameter copper pipe with 0.083" (2.1 mm) wall
  • Available in continuous sections up to 10’ (3.05 m) in length; longer rods can be field assembled using 5’ (1.52 m) or 10’ (3.05 m) extensions
  • Optional factory-attached radial strips are available to reduce impedance to high-frequency lightning energy and to control the direction of the dissipation
  • L-shaped rods are available for horizontal installation applications where it is impractical to auger deep vertical holes
  • Access segment on horizontal (L-shaped) chemical ground electrodes is 32" (813 mm) deep
