– Certain ground conditions make it difficult to obtain a reliable earth resistance, whilst particular installations may require a very low
resistance. In such cases, FurseCEM
®
provides a convenient and permanent solution. By adding FurseCEM
®
in place of sand and
aggregate, to cement, a conductive concrete is formed. This electrically conductive medium has many applications in the electrical/
construction industry, including RF and microwave screening, static control and, of course, earthing, for which it was specifically
developed
.
– When used as a backfill for earth electrodes, FurseCEM
®
impregnated concrete greatly increases the electrode’s surface area thus
lowering its resistance to earth

– Used as an earth-electrode backfill to reduce soil resistivity by retaining moisture. The clay is a sodium activated montmorillonite,
which when mixed with water swells to many times its dry volume. It has the ability to hold its moisture content for a considerable
period of time and to absorb moisture from the surrounding soil (e.g. from rainfall)
