Copper-Bonded Ground Rods
- Galvan’s copper-bonded rods have a heavy, uniform coating of copper metallurgically bonded to a rigid steel core.
- Excellent longevity in most soils.
- Galvan color codes the end of the rods to designate diameters to reduce errors.
- UL Listed rods have 10-mil minimum (254 microns) copper plating. UL/RUS models have 13-mil minimum of copper but 10-mil coating is acceptable.
- Listed to UL-467 specification.
- Meets NEMA GR-1
- Galvan manufactures copper-bonded rods under patent 6,527,934.
- Rods less than eight feet or less than 10 mils of copper, do not meet UL requirements, nor the National Electrical Code (NEC).
- RUS accepts 10 mils of copper. Please see page 5.
- Made in USA.
