| Back Fill Compound
(B.F.C) |
|
"Ashlok" earthing
system comes with a compound named Back
Fill Compound (B.F.C) when has all the qualities
of the ideal backfill material for an earthing
system. It is easily compacted and when
water is added to it, it will absorb up
to thirteen times its dry volume. This consistently
holds its own shape and adheres to any surface
it touches. These capabilities resolve the
issues of compatibility and soil / rod contact
that are crucial to an earthing system.
BFC absorbs whatever moisture is present
and maintains within itself, in contrary
to surface appearances.

| Benefits
of Back Fill Compound (B.F.C) |
|
|
Maintains moisture within
the sphere of influence of electrode. The
B.F.C. will cause the low soil resistivity
around the electrode., which results in
a significantly lower earth resistance,
that could not otherwise be obtained using
a conventional earth electrode installation.
|
|
|
Provides cathodic protection
for the electrode
|
|
|
Enhances the surrounding
soil conductivity thereby making it more
effective for high fault, noise, ripples,
harmonics, neutral to earth unbalance and
lightning current dissipation.
|
|
|
The enhancement backfill material has special
application with non-toxic enhancers to
further improve its durability and performance.
