Product Introduction

Dehn terra

Green Backfill Earthing Compound

SPECIFICATION

Product description
  • For improving and stabilising the earth electrode resistance.
  • Highly swellable, powdery and extremely moisture retaining special clay provides a conductive earth electrode enclosure and reduces the soil resistivity.
  • Principle of the DEHNIT earthing method is to bind the fine-grained DEHNIT with water and sand and to enclose the earth electrode with this mixture. This enclosure is onductive and thus it increases the earth electrode surface.
  • The DEHNIT enclosure method has three important benefits compared with the conventional earthing method:
    • A low soil resistivity can be achieved even in case of a poor ground conductivity
    • The DEHNIT enclosure method reduces the soil resistivity by approx. 50 %, therefore lower costs for earth electrode material.
    • The achieved soil resistivity is mostly independent of temperature and weather fluctuations and remain constant for years (see Figure 1).
