Description

Earthing Enhancing Compound (EEC) are low resistivity compound that is intended to lower the earthing resistance of an earth termination system when added between the buried earth electrode and subsoil. These are often called as Maintenance Free Earthing or Chemical Earthing in Bangladesh, which is used along with copper Rod in pipe vertical earth electrodes..

The IEC 62561-7 explains the technical requirement of these compounds. The IEEE 80 and IS3043 also mentioned these compounds in the standards.

Benefits of Maintenance Free Earthing:

• Eco friendly chemicals are used for longer life.
• Maintenance Free
• More Surface area conduction
• Highly reliable for safety to human life
• Adequate galvanization and highly conductive
• Design to handle high peak current & maximum fault current dissipation instantly
• Controls Radio frequency emission & electromagnetic interferences
• Provide stable reference potentials for instrument accuracy
• Discharges short circuit currents
• Corrosion Free and Maintains low resistance for a very long period having minimum fluctuation
