Grounding Strand vs Ground Rods - Key Differences and Benefits | Kunbian Power Equipment

The grounding strands and rods are among the most important elements in any electrical set up. The ground rods are more directly embedded in the earth, and are used for providing a strong point of earth for static grounding while grounding strands provide more flexibility and can be used in different forms. It is important to comprehend the differences between these two options in order to choose the most appropriate grounding device. The use of ground rods in most circumstances occurs when an installation is intended to be permanent. Grounding strands on the other hand are used in cases where the installation is fully or partially intended to be temporary. Choosing the right grounding technique is essential in providing better electrical system performance and safety, thus it is very important for the engineers as well as the technicians to assess their specific requirements.
