Hóa chất GEM

Hóa chất GEM

Ground Enhancement Material (GEM) is a superior conductive material that solves your toughest grounding problems. It is the ideal
material to use in areas of poor conductivity, such as rocky ground, mountain tops and sandy soil. GEM dramatically reduces earth
resistance and impedance measurements. Furthermore, GEM may reduce the size of the grounding system where conventional
methods are unsatisfactory. Once installed, GEM is maintenance-free, not requiring periodic charging or the presence of water
to maintain its conductivity. Third-party testing has been completed to verify that GEM conforms to IEC® 62561-7. This standard
introduces a benchmark for electrical performance and corrosion of earth enhancement materials that has been absent from the
industry to date. nVent ERICO offers GEM Calculator software that provides resistivity values for common GEM applications and can
help estimate the amount of GEM required for an installation. It operates in four languages - English, Spanish, French and German
- and performs calculations in Imperial or Metric units. The GEM Calculator is available for download on our website at erico.com.
