As technology changed, it brought a significant shift in the earthing philosophy.

Initially, Chemical Earthing was introduced. Chemical earthing has changed the way earthing
system was viewed.
Now we have a range of rods or electrodes made from various highly
conductive materials which are connected to the equipments with strips and other accessories in the
chemical grounding process. Special compounds to fill in the earth-pit, around the electrode to
conditioning the soil with eco friendly minerals, along with the new types of earth Rods and earth
Electrodes, ensure that these earthing systems provide you an incredibly longer working life of 2030 years with high conductive and low resistance path. These are reliable and require minimal to
NO maintenance.
Advantages & Benefits
Maintenance Free
Corrosion Free & maintains low resistance for a very long period, having minimal
fluctuations
Highly reliable for safety to human life
More surface area of conduction
Adequate galvanization and highly conductive
Designed to handle high peak current & maximum fault current dissipation instantly
Controls Radio Frequency Emissions & Electromagnetic interferences
Provides stable reference potentials for instrument accuracy
Discharges short circuit currents
Fit and forget solutions
Underground Earthing Electrode
The construction details of the Chemical Earthing Electrode are as bellow: There is a solid
conductor (highly galvanized), enclosed inside another highly galvanized Chemical Earthing
Electrode. The space in between is filled with anticorrosive & conductive compound. The electrode
composite system which is firmly packed / welded & sealed with sealant & is ready to use. The
basic purpose of the mineral filling compound is to resistance and to create a low resistance zone
surrounding the electrode uniform environment so that the electrode output is constant.
Use of salt & charcoal is eliminated in the method of effective earthling & instead a
specially developed, natural eco friendly material with improved properties is used. This is non
corrosive, has capacity to absorb & retain moisture from the surrounding. Being non soluble in
water, it stays at the place and in not washed out by the rain water/underground water. This mineral
filling compound is highly conductive.
Maintains low resistance value for a long period having the bare minimum fluctuations.
And wide range of products & sizes to suit any and every earthing requirement.
COMPANY PROFILE
Siri Earthing and

Lightning Protections
In all cases, the backfill medium should be conductive but non-corrrosive in nature, be
of a relatively small particle
article size and should, help to retain moisture for a considerable
period of time. More often than not the previous excavated soil is suitable
able as a backfill, but
should be sieved to remove any large stones and placed around the electrode,

taking care
to ensure that it is well compacted. The soil should maintain a pH value between 6.0
(acidic) to 10.0 (alkaline). Normal stiff clay is not a suitable backfill
ackfill material as, if
heavily compacted; it may become almost impervious to water and could remain
relatively dry. It may also form large lumps, which do not consolidate arround the electrode
avoiding to make good contact
act with soil to the electrode itself
BFC, (back fill compound) is a specially developed compound, which is capable of
absorbing and retaining the moistu
moisture for a long time, it reduces the soil resistivity, it helps
in faster dissipation of fault cur
current, least fluctuation of Ohmic value and it eliminates the
use of Salt, Charcoal etc. around
ound the Earthing Electrode. It has low solubility,
solubilit hence is not
easily washed away, and has a low resistivity (approximately 5-10 Ohm-meters in a
saturated solution). It is virtually
tually neutral, having a pH value of between 6.2 and 6.9. Should
not generally cause environmen
onmental difficulties in use. It assists in mainttaining a relatively
low resistivity over a long period of time, in areas where salts in the vicinity are dissolved
away by water movements (rainfall etc.). However, the fact that the material is not
easily dissolved will moderate the benefits achieved, since it will not permeate far into
the ground. This means that the beneficial effect will be localized for say an area
excavated around a buried electrode. This in turn means that the reduction in the
resistance value of the elect
electrode will not be dramatic but will be reasonably
easonably sustainable
Materials, which should not be used as backfill Compound, include sand, co kebreeze,
