FAQ:

How deep should I drive the ground rod?
Drive it as deep as possible into moist soil, as this closes the electrical circuit most effectively.

How many ground rods do I need?
When using several rods, keep a distance of at least 3 metres between each one.

Why should the ground rod be galvanised?
Rust has an insulating effect and hinders the voltage return to the fence energiser – galvanised steel prevents this.

    AKO Earthing Mix Bentonite 6 kg Bucket for Optimal Grounding in Soil
    AKO Earthing Mix Bentonite 6 kg Bucket for Optimal Grounding in Soil

    AKO Earthing Mix Bentonite 6 kg – reliable grounding for your electric fence A dependable earth connection is essential for a strong pulse on your electric fence. The AKO Earthing Mix ensures optimal conductivity even in difficult conditions such as dry or sandy soil. The special blend of clay and salt attracts moisture, which is essential for effective grounding. For an earth rod to conduct current properly, it must always sit in moist soil. The Bentonite mix binds the attracted moisture directly in the ground around the earth rod, keeping it there permanently. This way, any type of earth rod is firmly anchored and continuously supplied with the moisture it needs. Application is simple: mix the compound with 5 litres of water and pour it into a prepared hole – done. One bucket is generally enough for around 3 earth rods, making it ideal when retrofitting multiple grounding points. At a glance: Perfect grounding even in difficult conditions Special clay and salt mixture actively attracts moisture Moisture ensures lasting, optimal conductivity Suitable for all types of earth rods Quick and easy to mix with water and pour in Sufficient for approx. 3 earth rods Technical data: Material: special clay (bentonite) and salt mixture Content: 6 kg bucket Dimensions: approx. 22 x 22 x 20 cm (L x W x H) Weight: approx. 6.2 kg Mixing ratio: 5 litres of water per bucket Country of origin: France Scope of delivery: 1x AKO Earthing Mix Bentonite in 6 kg bucket FAQ: How many earth rods does one bucket cover?One 6 kg bucket is generally sufficient for around 3 earth rods. How is the earthing mix applied?Mix the compound with 5 litres of water and pour it into a prepared, appropriately sized hole for the earth rod. Which soils benefit most from this mix?Dry or sandy soils with naturally poor conductivity benefit most, as the mix significantly improves grounding.
