Bentonite is used as a backfill compound in electrical earthing to:
- Improve soil conductivity
- Ensure low earth resistance
- Maintain performance in dry conditions
It swells and retains moisture, creating a long-lasting, conductive layer around the electrode.
Premix Bentonite Earthing Compound
Premix Bentonite Earthing Compound is a specially formulated blend of Sodium Bentonite and conductive additives, used as a backfill material in electrical earthing systems.
Key Features:
- Provides low and stable earth resistance
- Retains moisturefor long-term conductivity
- Non-corrosive and safe for copper/galvanized electrodes
- Expands when wet to ensure continuous contact with the electrode
- Easy to apply – ready-to-use, no additional mixing needed
Applications:
- Electrical substations
- Lightning protection systems
