Along
with Electrode another key aspect of the grouding system is the backfill
compound. Back fill compound enhances the conductivity of the soil around the
electrode.
It is a specially developed
compound possessing high conductivity, non corrosiveness, moisture absorbing
& retaining characteristics for a longer time. It reduces the soil
resistivity, helps in faster dissipation of fault current and enables least
fluctuation of resistance value without using salt, charcoal, etc. around the
earthing electrode.
The best feature of
the
compound
is that it is not soluble in water and does not cotaminate the water at all nor
it moves away because of the water streams in the grounding pits . It not only
improves the safety of the equipments and the mankind but is also safe on the
environment
