Keep Your Home Safe From Surges With Ground Wire


A ground wire is an essential part of your electrical system. It directs the excess positive charge generated in your home into the ground. This excess positive charge can occur as a result of surges from lightning or transformer malfunctions but also arises when larger household appliances such as refrigerators or air conditioners turn on. Ground wires guide the charge generated by these minor or major surges and protect against the risk of electrical shock and fire. 


We offer ground wires with a variety of maximum amperages and voltages in multiple wire gauges and lengths. Ground wire size is a consideration depending on the specific application and expected amount of charge that needs to be dispersed. You'll also find stranded or solid ground wires with either one or seven conductors. Copper ground wire is available by the roll or by the foot and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
