A reliable earthing system with short, direct and low resistive path ensures protecting people, equipment, structure and environment by dissipating fault currents that are of high magnitude and impulsive rise times Earthing systems are designed as per the requirement of electrical systems and applications, though the principle remains the same, conductors, devices, type of connections varies for different applications such as power stations, overhead transmission systems, consumer power networks. BAHIA EARTHING GENERAL INTRODUCTION An efficient earthing system protects from + Injuries and fotalities to people. Damages to the structure and environment. + Failures in the power system. Interferences and noises in electronic systems Shutdowns and long downtimes, ote. EARTHING GENERAL INTRODUCTION Earth is an equipotential conductive mass, conventionally assumed that its potential is Zero (Negligible) + Earthing Earthing or Grounding Is connecting an electrical network, equipment or structure to earth Incidentally or Intentionally, directly or through a conducting medium. + Conductors An electrical conductor is a medium in which electrical charge flows, usually electrons when there is a potential difference + Leakage current Current that could flow from any conductive part or the surface of non-conductive parts to ground if a conductive path is available + Short Circuit, AA short circuit is simply a low resistance connection between the two conductors supplying electrical power to any circult, this results in excessive current flow In the power source through the “short,” and may even cause the power source to be destroyed. Impedance The effective resistance of an electric circuit or component to alternating current, arising from the combined effects of ohmic resistance and reactance. Resistivity of soll, reactance of conductor and connection forms the impedance of an earthing network Key Factors driving the efficiency The effectiveness of the earthing system relies on various factors including but not limited to Soil resistivity, type and shape of conductors, type of electrodes and efficiency of connections. The system design and selection of components are essential in achieving the shortest, direct ‘and low impedance path to dissipate the energy to the ground. Our Solution Bahra Earthing Systems offers.a comprehensive solution with design, technical support at the site for Soil R testing and selection of components that suits for the applications. The earthing components are designed and engineered to withstand harsh environmental conditions ond fault con: standards, fions in the electrical networks and are tested to the stringent BS, IEC and UL EARTH ELECTRODES Threaded rods: It is important that the earth electrode should be corrosion resistant and less reactive to the conductors used ensuring longer life and low maintenance. Bahra Threaded Copper bonded earth rods are made by molecularly bonding 99.9% pure electrolytic copper on a high tensile steel rod The copper bonded rod features high tensile strength comparing to solid copper earth rods and can be deep driven to the ground with less wear to the rods. Even at severe conditions the bonded copper does not crack or tear, the adhesion of copper is ensured by a thin layer of nickel beneath the copper. The threads are formed by a cold rolling process which ensures strength and eliminating the risk of chipping of threads while driving the rod deep into the ground. Threading is done after the copper coating as per the standard requirements, and this also ensures thread diameter of the rods to match couplers and other accessories. Cold Rolled threads are better than the cut threads as stress is evenly distributed in the cold rolled threading process. EARTHING EARTH ELECTRODES All Bahra copper bonded rods are coated with a minimum thickness of 10 mils or 254 microns 8 per the UL standards.
