REASONS FOR SELECTING PIC
PIC electrode is made from unique metal with special
alloys as homogeneous material, no bimetal contacts.
PIC electrode is free from galvanic attack.
PIC electrode is having very high rust resistive property
and good current conductive property.
PIC electrode has maximum utilization of available
surface area.
PIC electrode provides theft proof design.
PIC electrode is available in wide range in different sizes
to suit all types of need from common man to foreman.
REASONS FOR SELECTING PIC
PIC electrode is having large surface area compare to
conventional electrodes.
PIC electrode has capacity to carry high current
repeatedly.
PIC electrode is easy to install and require less space.
PIC electrode provides fast dissipation of any fault /
static current due to large surface area, no corrosion
and maintaining require moisture contents
Eco friendly earth enhancer compound as SFC.
Cost effective.
Ensures protection in any season.
Long life.
Typical Application of PIC Electrode
Clause 3.4
The grounding provided for the equipment and lines and Earthing
grid for substations shall be in accordance with IS: 3043 - Code
of Practice for Earthing.
Clause 3.5
It is not enough to have a good earth connection at the time of
construction, but it should also be maintained in a sound and
healthy state at all times. The Licensee shall take all necessary
steps for testing of the same and maintain the record of each test
in accordance with Sections- 32, 51, 61, 62, 67, 69, 88(2) and 90
of the Indian Electricity Rules, 1956.
Notification 10. Ch-3 Clause 3.4 to 3.6
Clause 3.6
Leakage current means difference between phase current and
return path. The Licensee shall take necessary steps to measure
leakage current at various points in the system.
