This product is intended for use by electrical distributors, lighting solution providers, wire and cable specialists, and switchgear suppliers requiring reliable grounding connections to copper-bonded ground rods. The exothermic welding process ensures a strong, corrosion-resistant bond between conductors and copper-bonded ground rods suitable for direct burial or exposure to harsh environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufacturer: nVent Erico\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part #: GYF183Q\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround Rod Type: Copper-Bonded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround Rod Diameter (Nominal): 3\/4”\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGround Rod Diameter (Actual): 0.682”\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConductor Size: 500 kcmil Concentric\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWelding Material: 500 or 500PLUSF20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEase of Use: Preferred\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHandle Clamp: L159\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProduct Weight: 6.8 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUPC: 782856595083\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKit: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExothermic welding system provides permanent, high-integrity electrical connections without external power or heat sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned specifically for copper-bonded ground rods, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePreferred ease of use rating with ergonomic L159 handle clamp for secure mold closure and reliable weld quality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for direct burial applications and exposure to earth or concrete without degradation over the grounding system’s lifetime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 500 or 500PLUSF20 welding materials for consistent weld metal quality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets industry standards for grounding connections, ensuring safety and reliability in electrical installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDownloads \u0026amp; Links\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/images.tradeservice.com\/5T4OF9MVXVJA4GL0\/ATTACHMENTS\/DIR100266\/nVent-Erico_00186_172_173_193_194_CAT.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eSpec Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/images.tradeservice.com\/5T4OF9MVXVJA4GL0\/INSTALLATIONSHEETS\/DIR100021\/nVentElectricPLC-Erico_00172_INST.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eSpec Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/images.tradeservice.com\/5T4OF9MVXVJA4GL0\/ATTACHMENTS\/DIR100364\/nVentElectricPLC-Erico_06265_1_2_SPEC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eSpec Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"nVent Erico","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46217159704801,"sku":"286460","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/9625\/4433\/files\/286460_image1.jpg?v=1787828079","url":"https:\/\/ulegroup.com\/products\/cable-to-ground-rod-or-other-rounds-9","provider":"ULE Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
