AFNOR Cu-a1 Solid Copper Grounding Rod 14.2mm 17.2mm 2m 2.4m for Industrial Earthing Grid
Product Spotlights
Product Description:
Copper Ground Rod – Reliable Earthing & Lightning Protection Solution
Copper ground rods are electrical conductors used to safely dissipate fault currents, lightning strikes, and static electricity into the earth. They are the most critical component of any electrical grounding system, providing a low-resistance path to ground for personnel safety and equipment protection.
Manufacturing process: Copper ground rods are manufactured from high-conductivity copper (C11000 electrolytic tough pitch copper) or manufactured by molecularly bonding a thick copper layer (≥250 microns) over a low-carbon steel core. The rods are then cut to length, pointed at one end, and threaded at one or both ends for coupling.
Key benefits:
High conductivity – Safely conducts fault currents to ground
Corrosion resistant – Withstands aggressive soil conditions
Long service life – 30+ years for copper bonded, 50+ years for solid copper
UL Listed – Compliant with UL 467 for safety
Typical applications: Electrical substations, lightning protection systems, telecommunication towers, solar farms, wind turbines, building earthing, industrial plants, railway grounding, data centers, and residential electrical systems.
Each batch includes EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate with conductivity and coating thickness data. UL marking available upon request. MOQ: 100–500 pieces, trial orders welcome.
