Description
Overview:
The 3/8" x 4ft Ground / Earth Rod Complete with Connector Clamp is a durable metal electrode used to establish a safe and reliable earth connection for electrical systems. With a 3/8" diameter (approximately 9.5 mm) and a 4 ft length (approximately 1.22 metres), it is designed to be driven into the soil to provide a low-resistance path to earth. The supplied connector clamp creates a secure bond to an earth conductor, helping improve protection against faults and static build-up. Suitable for site power distribution, small plant, and outdoor installations, it supports safe operation around construction equipment, temporary site setups, workshops, and outbuildings. Built for frequent on-site handling, it is a practical choice for tradespeople, facilities teams, and competent DIY users needing dependable earthing in varied ground conditions.
