InterTech does more than ground electrical systems. It safeguards trust, ensures safety, and builds endurance. At its core is Marconite®, a breakthrough conductive concrete that redefines earthing. With unmatched conductivity, measuring as low as 0.001 Ω·m, and zero-maintenance durability, it performs where conventional methods collapse.
Yet InterTech’s commitment extends well beyond product innovation. The company delivers a complete spectrum of safety solutions. These range from soil testing and precision-driven electrical audits to advanced lightning protection systems. Its expertise underpins mission-critical infrastructure: transformers, data centers, solar farms, hospitals, and even mobile command units.
Nothing here is improvised. Every solution is meticulously engineered. Every system is built to endure, not merely patch a problem. By blending innovation with uncompromising standards, InterTech guarantees compliance, reliability, and peace of mind.
In today’s world, safety is not optional. Reliability cannot be left to chance. InterTech stands as the trusted partner for industries that demand certainty.
At ETES 2025, hosted by Electrical Mirror, The Interview World held an exclusive dialogue with Gurmohit Singh, Partner at InterTech. In this engaging exchange, he unpacked the company’s distinctive earthing solutions, highlighted their unique value proposition, and explained how efficient earthing can save lives. He also shed light on how India is closing the gap with advanced global technologies in this vital domain.
Here are the key takeaways from that compelling conversation.
Q: Can you elaborate on the range of earthing solutions your company provides for electrical installations, and how these solutions ensure safety, reliability, and compliance with standards?
A: We offer a conductive concrete earthing solution that eliminates the need for watering or maintenance. Designed for longevity, it lasts well beyond 50 years. To reinforce that confidence, we provide a 25-year guarantee on its in-wall performance.
Q: What key innovations has InterTech introduced in the earthing domain, and how have these advancements improved safety, efficiency, or sustainability in electrical systems?
A: This is a complete earthing solution that delivers significant cost savings. Unlike chemical or charcoal-based earthing, it eliminates the expense of continuous watering and prevents contamination of surface and underground water channels. By avoiding pollution and recurring maintenance costs, it safeguards both the environment and the bottom line.
Q: What makes your earthing solution more suitable for industrial applications compared to conventional alternatives?
A: We are witnessing a clear shift from mechanical to electronic systems. Modern electronics operate on low voltages, typically 5 or 12 volts, which makes them extremely sensitive. However, this sensitivity also generates significant harmonics.
To dissipate these harmonics effectively, robust earthing becomes essential. Without proper dissipation, system performance deteriorates, and electronic equipment faces inevitable failure. That is precisely why advanced earthing is not optional. It is indispensable.
Q: How do your earthing solutions simplify implementation for installation companies and power distribution firms, making the process more user-friendly and efficient?
A: We no longer need to maintain it, which immediately eliminates recurring maintenance costs. That alone saves substantial money. More importantly, it safeguards lives, because this is a fail-proof earthing system.
When the earthing system is fail-proof, the entire infrastructure performs at peak efficiency. That efficiency translates directly into energy savings. And every unit of energy conserved reduces costs—not just for individuals but for the nation as a whole.
In essence, a robust earthing system protects lives, conserves energy, and saves money. That is its most vital contribution.
Q: In what ways can an efficient earthing system play a critical role in safeguarding lives and preventing electrical hazards?
A: Saving lives must remain our foremost priority. Every single day, India loses nearly 60 people due to the absence of proper equipment. Most of these tragedies occur because of faulty earthing and the unsafe use of materials like wood as substitutes.
With a high-performing earthing system, we can prevent these needless deaths. Each life saved is precious beyond measure. Beyond that, a reliable system also eliminates electrical hazards, ensuring safety at every level.
Q: How does India’s position as an earthing solutions provider compare with that of developed countries?
A: This technology is already in use across the UK and Europe. If India adopts it, we can transform our entire earthing infrastructure.
The earthing system forms the backbone of the electrical and power distribution network. Strengthening it will directly translate into safer operations and higher reliability. Most importantly, it will save countless lives. Far too many deaths today result from faulty maintenance, equipment failures, and, at the root, defective earthing.
By embracing proven global practices, India can eliminate these risks and build a safer, more efficient power system.
Q: Could you walk us through the process of installing an earthing system, and typically, how much time does such an installation require?
A: The installation process is remarkably simple. In soft soil, one earthing electrode can be installed in just an hour. Even in rocky terrain, the task remains straightforward, requiring only a little more time with DTH machines.
The system is designed for ease. It is user-friendly, equipment-friendly, and environmentally responsible. Above all, it offers a truly green solution for earthing.
