GI EARTHING STRIPS

GI Earthing Strips (Galvanized Iron Earthing Strips) are used in electrical earthing systems to safely discharge fault current into the ground, ensuring the protection of equipment and personnel.

What Are GI Earthing Strips?

GI earthing strips are flat metal conductors made of iron coated with zinc (galvanized) to prevent corrosion. They provide a low-resistance path to ground and are commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential grounding systems.

Common Specifications:

Parameter	Details
Material	Galvanized Iron (GI)
Width	25 mm to 75 mm
Thickness	3 mm to 6 mm
Length	As required (standard 3m or 6m)
Coating	Hot-dip galvanized (zinc coating 80–120 microns)
Standards	IS 3043, IS 2629, IEEE, IEC

Advantages:

Corrosion resistance due to zinc coating
Cost-effective compared to copper
Good conductivity for fault current dissipation
Long service life with minimal maintenance

Applications:

Electrical panels
Transformer earthing
Lightning protection systems
Substations and power plants
Communication towers
