ERICO Earth Rods have all the benefits of a copper-bonded coating, plus:• Nickel-sealed high strength steel core
• 99.9% pure electrolytic copper coating
• ERICO® name, length, diameter and part number is roll-stamped within 12" (304.8 mm) of chamfered end
• UL logo and control number where applicable stamped on each rod for easy inspection after installation
ERICO's unique manufacturing process includes drawing the steel rod to size before the copper bonding process begins, resulting in a straighter, harder steel core. We use a continuous electro-plating process over the nickel sealed steel core resulting in a permanent molecular bond which will not slip or tear when driven, nor crack when bent, that provides decades of reliable performance.
All ERICO® rods are made to meticulous standards and exceed the requirements outlined in AS/NZS 3000:2007 for minimum surface treatment thickness.

LONGER LIFE
The copper adhesion tests confirm the design feature that prevents the ingress of moisture and subsequently the integrity of the earth rod. ERICO use Carbon steel, grade 1018 which has a much higher tensile strength than the 250 / 350 grade mild steel typical of the core in a tubular copper sheathed earth rod.

A grounding system's performance is dependent upon the effective operation of several components. Failure of any one of these renders the entire system ineffective. Electrical elements buried underground are subject to much harsher conditions than their counterparts above ground. The ability of an electrical grounding component to resist corrosion determines its service life.
ERICO COPPER-BONDED COATING:• Permanent molecular bond• Low resistance performance• High fault current capacity
(IEEE® Std 80)• Will not slip or tear when
driven
• Will not crack if rod is bent• Copper coating may vary to meet
required standards• 10 mil (254 micron) minimum
coating on rods listed to UL®467
CARBON STEEL CORE AND TIP*:• Greater Tensile Strength• Deep driving capability *ERICO copper-bonded rods
GROUNDING SYSTEMS:• Protect people• Provide a signal reference for low
voltage digital signals for electronic equipment
• Prevent the flashover of insulators on transmission lines
• Protect expensive equipment, e.g. transformers, capacitors, reclosers, and lightning arrestors

AMP developed the SHEAR-LOK Copper Tap/Grounding Connector for applications in the power utility industry where connectors are required to withstand mid-range magnitudes of fault current (20kV symmetrical RMS).
SHEAR-LOK connectors utilise AMP Wedge Pressure Technology and controlled-torque-drive bolts to provide easily applied and highly reliable ground rod connections. This family of connectors is ideal for MV applications where connections must be made between conductor and rod.
KEY FEATURES
• Wedge Pressure Technology• Shear-head bolt for controlled torque• Removable without conductor damage• No special tools required• Application not inhibited by disfigured ground rod end• Taps into existing ground conductors
Cat No. Connections0-83749-1 35MM² – 13MM ROD/50MM² – 13MM ROD0-83747-3 35MM² – 35MM²/50MM² – 50MM²/50MM² – 70MM²0-83749-2 50MM² – 13MM ROD/70MM² – 13MM ROD0-83748-2 95MM² – 13MM ROD/120MM² – 13MM ROD
The WRENCH-LOK System uses a specially designed shear-head bolt to drive a tapered wedge into the connector body.
All that’s needed to apply it is a common ratchet or socket wrench. When the connection is tightened to the proper torque, the bolt head shears off, giving a positive visual indication of a perfect connection. It’s that simple and sure.
WRENCH-LOK connections can be installed in any weather conditions and are very safe for the installer. This product line offers options to connect conductor to conductor or conductor to ground rod.
WRENCH-LOK meets the requirements of IEEE 837.

POLE TOP RESCUE KIT
This kit provides an ingeniously simple method of rescuing a worker who has fallen from their ladder and is suspended by their lanyard from a cross member.
Simply loop the rope over the cross member, loop it back around itself several times, and clip the carabiner to the worker's harness chest loops.
Once released from their lanyard, they can be lowered gently to the ground thanks to the friction of the rope looped around itself.

TE CONNECTIVITY FIRE MITIGATION SOLUTIONS
WILDLIFE MANAGEMENTLocalised fires caused by animals such as birds or possums infiltrating your overhead lines and substations are often the result of electrocution. They fall to the ground below and spark a fire. We can help you prevent animal induced wildfires and bushfires with our wide selection of insulating wildlife mitigation solutions, including bushing covers, cross arm guards and more. Each is manufactured from our unique Raychem polymer material. It’s specially formulated to resist tracking, UV degradation and thermal extremes. We are committed to protecting your network for the life of your assets and reducing the risks of wildfire and bushfires with 60+ years of manufacturing and design experience.
VEGETATION MANAGEMENTThe equation is simple. Fuel + Source of Ignition = Fire. Vegetation can act as a fuel to a fire when combined with an ignition source. A vegetation management program is therefore essential to reducing the risk of wildfires and bushfires. We can help you prevent vegetation clashing with conductors and overhead lines while reducing the frequency and expense of trimming and debris removal with reliable safeguards such as overhead line covers and insulators.
GRID HARDENINGAging infrastructure coupled with severe weather can increase the likelihood of bushfires and wildfires. Hardening your grid to make it more resilient and less vulnerable to weather events must be part of any fire mitigation plan. We offer a complete range of insulators and arrestors designed to protect the grids of tomorrow and strengthen them against the volatility of today's changing energy demands. We can help you identify weaknesses and decide upon the most cost-effective measures to strengthen your grid, whether that means underground solutions, conductor replacement or arrestor location and more.

The strategic installation of insulating components and barriers can be used to minimise the impact of wildlife on power grid assets. If these components are specified correctly, such modifications can minimise costly power outages while reducing fire risk and safeguarding assets and the environment for 40 years or more.
Fire-related outages caused by wildlife and vegetation generally fall into two categories:
• Phase-to-earth faults. These occur when wildlife or debris forms a conductive pathway connecting the equipment phase to the ground
• Phase-to-phase faults. These occur when two adjacent phases collide or are momentarily connected via wildlife or debris, producing hot, molten metal particles
THE COST OF FIRESImproved fire safety and operating reliability helps utility owners avoid the catastrophic implications of wildlife-related fires, including:
• Injuries and loss of life
• Damage to (and loss of) power grid assets
• Service interruptions and power outages
• Environmental hazards and danger to personnel
• Damage to agricultural and horticultural assets
• Regulatory penalties and litigation
• Reputational damage and damage to shareholder value
For most utilities, the ability to avoid even one potential outage can help to underwrite the costs to upgrade the system with appropriate protections.
Trust TE's proven track record of experience in the field, broad expertise in electrical and mechanical component design, fully integrated compounding, supply-chain integration, testing and installation, and materials science expertise.
CONSIDERATIONS FOR ASSET PROTECTIONIt is essential to select polymeric formulations that can withstand the harsh operating conditions most overhead lines and substations routinely experience — including high-voltage stress, pollution buildup, pollution induced arcing, flashover, elevated temperatures and mechanical stress. The three most critical material science performance attributes to consider when specifying AP components are these:
• Tracking and erosion resistance (TERT)
• Ultraviolet (UV) resistance
• Thermal endurance

EUREKA ARC FLASH PROTECTION
ARC FLASH INTENSITYThe expected intensity of an arc flash incident can be calculated by engineers who have access to the properties of their electric installations. It is not always that the highest voltage is the most dangerous!
BODY PARTS MOST AT RISK1. HandsAre by far the most exposed body part and suffer the highest number of injuries
2. FaceAfter hands, the face is the second most exposed!
3. BodyAlthough the body can take more damage and is usually more protected, the risk of dying increases drastically if 70% or more of the skin is burntSeverity of injury reduces by the square of the distance. Double the distance from the explosion equals four times less energy

GET ADVANCED FAULT DETECTION
Fault Indicator for Overhead LinesThe FLA3.1VL is a robust and versatile Fault Passage Indicator (FPI) with the unique ability to query and set parameters via remote control from the ground. The FLA3.1VL has a 360deg bright flashing LED to indicate fault passage with a myriad of fault detection and threshold settings. The FLA3.1VL is hot-stick mountable with a simple hot-stick adapter and can accommodate a wide conductor range.
Using the FIS-FR (Relay/Dry-contact) or FIS-FS (Modbus/Serial) gateways, you can connect the FLA3.1VL radio interface to SCADA. The FLA3.1VL can be queried for line current, temperature, battery status and presence of voltage among other parameters.
Features• Easy and full configurability with remote control• Trip current fixed threshold (between 10-800A in 10A steps)
OR
Automatic trip current threshold depending on service current
• Trip current di/dt: di selectable between 5 and 100A
dt: 20ms at 50Hz
• Response delay selectable between 40ms and 300ms• Ultra-bright red LED indication 360deg visible.• Test function by remote control including battery status.• Replaceable Lithium type A 3.6V battery. 800hrs flashing life• Reset function:

• Capability of connecting to SCADA systems via remote indication interfaces type RIS-FR and RIS-FS.
• Detection and indication of – Permanent fault – Temporary faults – Transient currents
• German made and built to last!
Advanced Fault DetectionThe FLA3.1VL fault passage indicator provides two methods to detect faults. The absolute threshold detection method works with a selected fixed current – selectable in 10A increments; or an automatically calculated absolute threshold. This method can be disabled when not required. Additionally, the fault indicator provides a di/dt measurement method. This method responds to current load changes within a certain period of time. The level of lead change can be adjusted via the remote control. Additionally, a subsequent voltage loss is used as a criterion to assure correct detection of faults. All parameters can be set and confirmed via the Remote Control.
