Earthing & Grounding Systems
Importers in Lusail City

Copper-bonded earth rods typically export under HS 74091100 (copper bars, rods, profiles) or 74081900 (copper wire); GI earthing pipes and plates fall under 73269099 (other articles of iron or steel). Get the exact subheading confirmed by your customs broker before shipping. For buyers in the UAE, these codes clear duty-free under India–UAE CEPA once the Certificate of Origin is in hand.

Earthing rods, plates, pipes and strip sit under HSN 7326 or 7409/7408 and carry 18% GST within India. That doesn't touch an export order. Shipments go out under an LUT with no IGST charged, or with IGST paid and then refunded to us. What lands on your invoice is the FOB or CIF price plus whatever import duty your own country applies.

Copper-bonded rod, a steel core with roughly 250 µm of electrodeposited copper, is the international default. It gives steel's tensile strength and copper's conductivity for a fraction of solid copper's price. GI pipe electrodes suit high-resistivity soil and IS 3043 Type-A compliance on tighter budgets. Solid copper is reserved for aggressive acidic, high-chloride or high-sulphate soils, where even a thick copper-bonded coating risks galvanic failure at the steel-copper interface.

IEC 62561-2 Class H sets a minimum copper coating thickness of 250 µm on the rod's outer surface. Verification uses either the Faraday-cup electrochemical stripping method or a cross-section SEM measurement, both are described in IEC 62561-2 Annex A. We test a sample from every production batch and include the thickness certificate in the dispatch document pack. A rod that does not meet 250 µm Class H cannot be described as IEC 62561-compliant, regardless of the supplier's claim, ask for the test method and measurement record, not just a certificate.
