Solid earthing rod Ø18x2000mm (hot-dip galvanized steel) /OG/ AH14341

Earthing rods and protection against atmospheric discharges

This single earthing rod with a diameter of 18 mm and a length of 2000 mm, made of hot-dip galvanized steel, is a key element in lightning protection systems. It serves to effectively discharge lightning current to the ground, minimizing the risk of damage to installations and buildings. The design of the earthing rod allows for easy connection to the earthing busbar, facilitating the construction of comprehensive earthing systems.

This earthing rod is suitable for both new installations and the modernization of existing lightning protection systems. Its solid construction and material guarantee long-lasting and reliable operation, even in harsh environmental conditions. The use of hot-dip galvanized steel provides corrosion resistance, which is particularly important for elements buried in the ground.

Construction features and application

The earthing rod is designed for ease of installation and efficient operation. A diameter of 18 mm ensures adequate mechanical strength, and a length of 2000 mm allows for achieving low earthing resistance. The ability to connect to the earthing busbar expands the range of applications, allowing for the construction of more extensive earthing systems. Designed for use with conductors with a cross-section of up to 30 mm², ensuring compatibility with most standard installations.

The use of a single earthing rod allows for:

• Performing vertical earthing rods, which form the basis of effective lightning protection.
• Leading and dissipating lightning current into the ground, protecting buildings and equipment from damage.
• Building earthing systems in accordance with PN-EN 62305-1 standard – this is confirmed by the product certification.
• Easy connection to other elements of the lightning protection system thanks to a connector enabling integration with the earthing busbar.
• Providing durable protection thanks to the use of high-quality hot-dip galvanized steel.

The earthing rod is made of hot-dip galvanized steel. Its diameter is 18 mm, and its length is 2000 mm. It is designed for use with conductors with a cross-section of up to 30 mm². Installation is facilitated by an M8x25 screw made of galvanized steel, and the weight of the entire element is 4 kg.
