How do I connect an earthing product?
On the info-page you will find a manual about how to connect earthing products.
Isn't it dangerous to connect the earthing product to the electrical outlet?
No, when the electrical outlet is connected properly this is not dangerous. There is no contact with the electricity grid. When the outlet is not properly connected you can not use it for your earthing product, hence the advice to check this before using it for your earthing product, for example with the socket tester (only for type F outlets!).
What happens if the earthing product is not grounded (correctly) ?
Because of the conductive properties of the earthing product it will absorb the electric voltage from the environment without being able to discharge. This means your bodyvoltage will rise in stead of drop. This is not desired. It is therefore important to check if the product is connected correctly and not to use the product if it's not connected.
Can I also put the earthing sheet underneath my regular sheet?
Yes, measurement shows that the effect is almost the same, provided you have no synthetic sheet on top.
You can see this measurement in the first video on our video page.
Many customers lay it underneath their regular sheet and are very pleased with the performance. An advantage is that the sheet will last longer. Possibly you prefer to have direct skin contact with the earthing sheet. This is a personal preference so it is best to try for yourself what is most comfortable for you.
Is there no special plug needed with the products?
No. Because the products of Earth Connection are made for the European market, there is no US plug on the cable. Therefore no European adapter is required in most European Countries.
The cable can be connected directly to the earthing pin of electrical outlets type E or F. For other outlet types you wil have to use an earthed travel adaptor.
How can I wash the earthing sheet?
On our productinfo page, you will find an instruction for connecting and maintenance.
What should I do in case of lightning?
Although the chance that something happens is minimal, it is generally advised not to use the earthing product during lightning storms.
How is it possible that the earthing products of Earth Connection are cheaper than other earthing products?
The products of Earth Connection are produced in the Netherlands. Other products are imported from America. In America the earthing products are patented which results in a monopoly position and thus higher prices. In addition, it also leads to higher import duties, transport costs and there are multiple organizations that need to make a profit.
In Europe the patent was not granted so the free market economy can do its job and the products can be offered at a fair price.
Is the performance of the Earth Connection products just as good?
Yes, the performance of the products is excellent. This can also be measured with a suitable multimeter. On the page "Video" you will see a short video's in which the performance of earthing sheet and earthing mat is demonstrated. The products are of high quality and durable material.
We have many happy customers. Some of their reviews you can read on the website.
