Abstract

This chapter includes the following points: Methods of installing ground rods, chemical ground rod, chemical treatment of soil lessens seasonal variation of electrodes, soil treatment, trench method of soil treatment, lengthen of the earth electrode in the earth, use multiple rods, Ground Enhancement Material, (GEM), grid installation and conductor materials of grounding system. This chapter draws attention also to the following points: ground rod life expectancy, ground rod annual cost, grounding rods accessories and applications, grounding rods installation methods, chemical grounding rods, copper versus stainless steel electrodes, variation on grounding resistance system by seasonal variation effects and finally how to improve the earthing resistance.
