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 />

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 />

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 />
