Introduction:
The earthing system, sometimes simply referred as earthing, is the total set of measures used to connect exposed and extraneous electrically conductive parts to earth. The earthing system is an essential part of all power networks required at all voltage levels.
Earthing System
A single reliable earthing system has to be designed to fulfill all the following functions: - Protection of buildings and installations against lightning. - Ensure Safety of human and animal life by limiting touch and step voltages/potential to safe value. - Reliable operation of the electricity supply network and to ensure good power quality.
Earthing System
Earthing system is in strict accordance with IS:3043 and Indian Electricity Rules/Acts.
All lightning protection down conductors are connected to dedicated ground electrodes through isolating links and then to the grounding system.
