EARTH PIT COVER

MANUFACTURE OF Earth Pit Cover
Page 2 of 6
To protect the earth pits against ingression of foreign material, an appropriate earthing pit cover is provided to be
placed atop the earth pit. Earth Pits provide a secure and user friendly access point for maintenance purposes and
the periodical measuring of electrical resistance of a buried earthing system.
In order to complete routine measurements of electrical resistance simply remove the lid from the installed earth pit
and connect a lead from the resistance meter to the earthing conductor.
Our Earth Pit is manufactured from heavy duty polypropylene for high strength, available in standard and
lightweight variants.
Polyplastic earth pit cover is maintenance free earth pit cover.
It is of heavy duty and lasts for 15 years minimum.
Main features :
- Factory- built long holes for accessing pipes easily at site
- Made of heavy duty polyethylene for extra durability.
- Resistant materials, assuring long use-life.
- Green top cap matches the environment.
- Non breakable for load upto 3000kg.
- Integral lock
- Internal slots to enable an integral earth bar to be fitted
Range of pit cover includes Concrete pit cover and polypropylene plastic pit cover / PP Pit Cover.
Installation Process
- Ground Preparation
Excavate the hole to suit the pit, put a bag mix concrete pad to the pit to sit on, in order to create an even solid base.
Pit Placement
Set the pit in place, and connect the appropriate pipe work to the pit. With a grated pit the grates sits inside the pit.

Back Fill
Back Fill the hole with stabilised crushed rock or concrete depending on the load classifaction.
Protective Edge
All pits require a concrete surround at the top edge of the pit for protection against vehicle impact.
Advantages
The physical qualities of our Cover is that with its excellent dielectric properties, high mechanical strengths, chemical
resistance and zero water absorption make it ideal for electrical applications.
