Earth Contact Backfill

PowerFill™ is an economical ground enhancement material that substantially lowers earth resistance of copper-clad ground rods and copper grounding systems.

View Product

PowerFill™ is the economical solution for areas with difficult grounding problems. It is highly conductive wet or dry yet does not require moisture to lower the resistance of a grounding system. This Loresco product carries an NSF certification (Certified to NSF/ANSI standard 60) enabling installation around underground potable water systems. PowerFill™ also contains a corrosion inhibitor which forms a film on the copper creating a barrier against corrosion.

This is designed to be used in conjunction with all standard copper grounding equipment allowing for a greater variance in design that would otherwise be uneconomical.

PowerFill™ can be poured in dry or for large installations it is recommended that PowerFill™ be pumped in slurry form. No tamping required. It is very worker friendly. No special tools are required for smaller jobs.

Powerfill Features & Characteristics:

  • Positive low resistance, electrical connection to the earth
  • Compatible with all copper grounding systems
  • Does not contain any hazardous chemicals
  • Will not leech into the ground
  • Never needs recharging
  • Electrically conductive
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Stable permanent ground for the life of the grounding system
  • Contains a corrosion inhibitor to protect copper
  • Will not expand or experience any shrinkage
  • Not affected by freezing
  • Simple to install
  • Excellent shelf life with no performance effects

Installation

We test the site, design the best solution, drill, then install earth contact backfill by pumping to the lowest point ensuring the hole is filled with Loresco PowerFill™ to its maximum capacity.

Powerfill Installation Methods:

Vertical Installation:

  • Drill or dig the earth hole to the desired diameter and depth
  • Suspend ground rod in center of hole to be filled
  • Pour PowerFill™ until desired level is obtained
  • No tamping is necessary

Horizontal or Grid Construction:

  • Entire grounding system should be surrounded by PowerFill™
  • Conductors should be insulated as they exit the PowerFill™ column

Horizontal Construction:

  • Pour into horizontal trench until level of ground wire is reached
  • Place ground wire
  • Pour in additional PowerFill™ until ground wire is covered to desired height
  • Cover with fill. No tamping necessary

Grid Construction:

  • Pour PowerFill™ and spread over ground grid until desired thickness is achieved
  • Cover with fill
