Earthing systems in computer centres – it’s all about the base

Safety in the computer centre starts with the earthing system: It forms the basis for the safe function of the electrical systems. Amongst other things, earth rods, conductors and connectors are used, ensuring a reliable function. A particular feature of earthing systems in data centres, but also in other areas, is that corrections at a later date are very complex or even impossible. For this reason, everything must be right from the very start. This is a challenge that’s tailor-made for OBO. We can also provide additional safety in data centres with the following earthing systems.

• Stainless steel flat conductors: With these, we fulfil the foundation earth electrode standard DIN 18014, which requires the use of V4A stainless steel in the earth
• Cross-connector for stainless steel round and flat conductors – also made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel
• Earthing clamps for reinforced steels with diameter 8–14 mm
• Corrosion protection bandages to wrap above- and below-ground connections
