ERICOs Ground Enhancing Material (GEM) is a superior conductive material that improves grounding effectiveness, especially in areas of poor conductivity such as rocky ground, areas of moisture variation, and sandy soils.
Applications
GEM is ideal for areas with poor conductivity such as rocky ground, mountain tops, sandy soil and areas of moisture variation.
FEATURES:
- Effective-typical resistivity 12-18 Ohm cms (20 times lower than bentonite clay)
- Once in its set form, maintains constant resistance for the life of the ground system
- Performs in all soil conditions even during dry spells
- Permanent - does not dissolve, decompose or leach out with time
- Meets (USA) Environmental Protection Authority requirements for landfill
- Can be installed using Trench or Ground Rod Backfill methods
