Earthing Strip Fundamentals

Material Properties

Different materials offer varying benefits:

  • Copper: Excellent conductivity, corrosion resistant
  • Aluminum: Lightweight, cost-effective
  • Steel: High strength, economical for large installations

Weight Considerations

  • Transportation logistics and costs
  • Installation equipment requirements
  • Structural support considerations

Key Formula:

Weight = Length × Width × Thickness × Density

Units: Length (m), Width (mm), Thickness (mm), Density (kg/m³)

Calculation Formula

Weight Calculation:
Weight = L × W × T × ρ

Where:
L = Length (m)
W = Width (mm)
T = Thickness (mm)
ρ = Material density (kg/m³)

Example Calculation

Copper Earthing Strip:

Length: 100m

Width: 25mm

Thickness: 3mm

Density: 8960 kg/m³

Weight = 100 × 0.025 × 0.003 × 8960 = 67.2 kg

Results: 67,200g | 67.2 kg | 0.067 tonnes
