Abstract

A method and system for forming ground electrodes are provided, the method includes: metal conductors are laid in grooves that are dug out on a ground surface; conductive solution is prepared, with the conductive solution consisting of 0.1%-0.5% of amylocellulose, 15%-24.9% of high conductivity carbon powders, 15%-24.9% of gel material, and 60%-70% of water, by weight percentage; and the conductive solution is poured into the grooves, wherein the conductive solution forms conductive gel after solidifying, which wraps up a part of the metal conductor contained in the groove. The system for forming grounding electrodes includes: an excavating equipment, a setup equipment, a solution preparation equipment and a pouring and molding equipment. The method and system for forming ground electrodes can make the discharging effect of lightning currents better.

Claims (9)

1. A method for forming grounding electrodes, comprising:

laying metal conductors in grooves that are dug out on a ground surface;

preparing a conductive solution consisting of 0.1%-0.5% of amylocellulose, 15%-24.9% of high conductivity carbon powders, 15%-24.9% of gel material, and 60%-70% of water, by weight percentage; and

pouring the conductive solution into the grooves, wherein the conductive solution forms a conductive gel after solidifying, which wraps up a part of the metal conductors contained in the grooves, so as to form the grounding electrode.

2. The method for forming grounding electrodes according to claim 1 , wherein the grooves are a shape selected from the group consisting of a cube, a cylinder, and an invented wedge.

3. The method for forming grounding electrodes according to claim 1 , wherein the prepared conductive solution has a PH value ranging from 7 to 8.

4. The method for forming grounding electrodes according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive solution contains acrylamide, methylene-bisacrylamide, potassium persulfate, and triethanolamine, and wherein, in weight percentage, the conductive gel consists of 40%-50% of acrylamide, 15%-30% of methylene-bisacrylamide, 8%-20% of potassium persulfate, and 12%-25% of triethanolamine.

5. The method for forming grounding electrodes according to claim 1 , wherein the high conductivity carbon powders have granularity larger than 1000 mesh.

6. The method for forming grounding electrodes according to claim 1 , wherein the high conductivity carbon powders have carbon content greater than 95%.
