Earthing installation and checks in Tbilisi
Earthing carries a leaking current into the ground instead of through a person. Labex installs earthing at private houses, checks what a flat already has, and connects it to the board, the sockets and the heavy appliances.
- Earthing installation at a private house
- Checking the existing earthing in a flat
- Earthing the sockets and the board
- Earthing the boiler, washing machine and cooker
- Fitting a residual current device alongside the earthing
How can you tell the earthing is missing or not working?
The casing of the washing machine, boiler or cooker gives a tingle when touched; you feel a slight current at a tap or in the bathroom; the residual current device trips often; the sockets have no earth contact at all. A tingle from a casing is urgent: do not use that appliance until an electrician has checked it.
How does Labex install earthing?
- Checking whether the supply and the board have an earth conductor
- At a private house, driving electrodes into the ground and bringing the conductor to the board
- Bringing the earth conductor to the sockets and the heavy appliances
- Fitting the residual current device and testing that it responds
Earthing is most often done together with a new board and is a must for an EV charger. At a private house it goes in with the run from the yard: electrician in Samgori and Lilo.
What does earthing work from Labex include?
Earthing carries a leaking current into the ground instead of through a person. Labex installs earthing at private houses, checks what a flat already has, and connects it to the board, the sockets and the heavy appliances.
How quickly does the electrician arrive?
Labex takes emergency calls first and handles most requests in Tbilisi the same day. Average response time is 30 minutes.
Where does Labex work?
Labex works across Tbilisi, in every district, and in the areas just outside the city.
How is earthing done at a private house?
At a private house, electrodes are driven into the ground in the yard, linked together and connected to the board by a dedicated conductor. Labex looks at the yard and the supply on site and tells you where and how it will be done.
Can a flat in an old block be earthed?
Old blocks were often built with no earth conductor at all. Labex first checks what the stairwell board has and recommends a solution from that. A residual current device protects a person in such a flat too and should always be fitted.
What does earthing cost?
It depends on the property: a private house needs ground work, a flat needs a check and a conductor run. Labex checks on site and tells you the cost before any work starts.
