Description
The backfill compound gets used for the prevention of current leakage. A back fill compound is added to the soil for absorption of moisture around the earthing electrode. The backfill compound product ensures the safety of humans and electrical equipment.
A backfill compound comprises an extent of Back Fill Compound that is dampness holding dirt used as an earth terminal refill to help lower soil resistivity. The conductive Back Fill Compound mud is a sodium enacted montmorillonite, which when blended in with water swells to a few times its unique volume mass when in a dry condition.
The earthing mixture absorbs water from the surrounding soils, lowering contact resistance and effectively expanding the diameter of the copper earth rods inserted and immersed in the cable trench. The Back Fill Compound lowers and protects against corrosion by lowering the resistance value of the earth rod through the moisture retention process.
Back Fill Compound may soak up to Five times its weight and expand to thirteen times its dry mass at six times its dry volume. The earthing compound is highly thick and in a pasty clay state that may hold form and stick to surfaces. Back Fill Compound hydrates chemically, keeping water in its structure. The clay compound has non-corrosive, stable, and keeps properties throughout time.
