Installation Guide

  1. Select Location
    Choose a spot with moist, conductive soil away from buried utilities.
  2. Drive the Rod
    Use a hammer or ground‑rod driver to drive the spike vertically until only 10–20 cm remains above ground.
  3. Attach Clamp
    Position the earth‑clamp over the exposed section and tighten the double nut and washer.
  4. Connect Cable
    Insert the earth conductor (12–16 mm) into the clamp and torque to the recommended specification.
  5. Test Resistance
    Measure earth resistance—ideally below 10 Ω—and add additional rods in series or parallel if needed.
