Bentonite Earthing Powder High Conductivity Earthing Chemical for Grounding

Bentonite earthing powder is a ground enhancement compound (GEM) used in electrical grounding systems to improve conductivity between soil and earth electrodes.

When hydrated, it expands and fills air gaps in the soil, ensuring:

• Better electrical contact

• Reduced soil resistivity

• Consistent earthing performance

It is classified as an earthing chemical suitable for modern grounding systems that follow international standards such as IEC 62561, IEEE 80, and BS 7430.

How Bentonite Powder is Used for Earthing Purposes?

Bentonite earthing powder is used as a conductive backfill material around earth rods, plates, or electrodes inside an earthing pit.

Common Earthing Applications

• Transformer and generator earthing

• HT & LT panel grounding

• Substation grounding systems

• Lightning protection systems

• Solar inverter and DC grounding

• Telecom towers and data centers

It is widely used in industrial, solar, and infrastructure projects across Pakistan.

How to Use Bentonite Powder for Earthing and Its Benefits

Step-by-Step Installation Method

1. Dig an earthing pit (300×300×300 mm or 450×450×450 mm)

2. Install a copper or GI earth electrode vertically

3. Mix bentonite earthing powder with clean water to form slurry

4. Pour the slurry evenly around the electrode

5. Compact the soil and seal the pit

Benefits of Using Bentonite Earthing Powder

• Achieves low and stable earth resistance

• Performs well in dry, sandy, and rocky soil

• Does not damage copper or GI electrodes

• Requires no periodic maintenance

• Long-lasting earthing solution (10–15 years)

• Environmentally safe earthing chemical
