earth rODS<br />

the Copper plated earth rods have a 254 micron electrolytic coating of copper. this process ensures a<br />

long lasting molecular bond between the copper layer and steel core. With a tough carbon steel core<br />

and a strong copper coating which will not slip or tear when driven nor crack when bent, these earth<br />

rods give a long and reliable service life. Copper plated and Stainless Steel earth rods both have a<br />

high resistance to corrosion and provide a low resistance path to ground. as well as Copper plated<br />

earth rods, we offer Stainless Steel earth rods for situations where harsh environments demand<br />

them.<br />

made to Ul Standard.<br />

earth rOD DriVing tOOl<br />

in order to reduce the chance of damage to the end of an earth rod, earth rod Driving tools are available.<br />

these units fit snuggly over the end of the earth rod and give a large surface area to drive the rod into the<br />

ground as well as ensuring there is no deformation of the rod. this is especially important if another<br />

rod is to be coupled to it.<br />

Shear-lOK<br />

amP has developed the Shear-lOK Copper tap/grounding Connector for applications in the power utility industry where connectors<br />

are required to withstand mid-range magnitudes of fault current (20kV symmetrical rmS). the Shear-lOK connectors utilise amP<br />

Wedge Pressure technology and controlled torque drive bolts to provide easily applied and highly reliable ground rod connections. this<br />

family of connectors is ideal for hV applications where connections must be made between conductor and rod.<br />

• Wedge Pressure technology<br />

• Shear-head bolt for controlled torque<br />

• removable without conductor damage<br />

• no special tools required.<br />

• application not inhibited by disfigured ground rod end.<br />

• taps into existing ground conductors.<br />

WrenCh-lOK<br />

the WrenCh-lOK System uses a specially designed shear-head bolt to drive a tapered wedge into the connector body.<br />

all that’s needed to apply it is a common ratchet or socket wrench. When the connection is tightened to the proper torque, the bolt<br />

head shears off, giving a positive visual indication of a perfect connection.<br />

it’s that simple and sure.<br />

WrenCh-lOK connections can be installed in any weather conditions and are very safe for the<br />

installer. the product line offers options to connect conductor to conductor or conductor to<br />

ground rod.<br />

the WrenCh-lOK system meets the requirements of ieee 837.<br />

disk and ignition source are incorporated into the self-contained package<br />

• Colour coded welding material reduces risk of misapplication and gives a simple visual verification of<br />

the correct welding material size<br />

• electronic Control Unit means no starting material is required and makes<br />

ignition very easy<br />

• Six foot control unit lead gives increased flexibility in hard to reach<br />

areas<br />

CaDWelD PlUS One ShOt<br />

the new refractory ceramic body utilized with the CaDWelD PlUS One ShOt system is more durable than conventional<br />

ceramic and resists breaking. the CaDWelD PlUS One ShOt is ideal for making permanent reliable connections to ground<br />

rods for electrical transmission and distribution, telecommunications and cable television applications.<br />

• easy to use electronic ignition. no starting material.<br />

• Durable disposable ceramic body eliminates the graphite mold and frame.<br />

• Produces a permanent connection that will not loosen or corrode.<br />

• neC Compliant and cUlus listed.<br />

Because the CaDWelD® PlUS process uses a high temperature reaction of powdered<br />

copper oxide and aluminium the mold needs to withstand the heat so they are made of<br />

semi permanent graphite and should last for more than 50 welds if properly cared<br />

for and maintained.<br />
