Thus, the need fora safeand superior earthing system was felt, and ASHLOK, after several years of &D efor, designed and developed the pipe-n-pipe technology concept of earthing system, whichis corrosiontesstant, stron, reliable, maintenancefreeand proven cost effective earthing solution, SEEriously Immortal Soa)ASHLOK HM TECHNICAL COMPARISON Jf Pipe-in-Fipe technology, two mild stee pipes one inside the other, hot dip galvanized, filed with high conductive and corrosion Fesistonce crystaline mixture and Backfill Compound around electrode.

Foruniform dstrbution of fault current, an earthing electrode must be clinvcalin shape. The surface being circular, the distance from the center taanypointisalwaysequal.

An ideal ground enhancing material should nothave any adverse effect on the electrode material end envionmentit should retains the moister around the cart pit, reduce the sol resitivty and helps ane faeter dzspation of fault current. When water Is added to the Back Fill Compound, it swells substantially. BFC consistently holds Rs own shape and adheres to any surface. These capailiis resolve the issues of compatiblity of sol-rod contactthatis crucial toan earthing system. There sno need to recharge the pitsin normal sols, BFC contains silfiendly materials. [BFC maintains moisture within the sphere of influence ofthe electrode, resuiting in ower earth resistance, which cannot be obtained from any other earthing system.
