GROUNDING
(EARTHING)
Prepared by
Vima Mali
When we will get electric shock?
IMPORTANCE OF EARTHING
1.Earthing provides an greater safety for human life, property or equipment.
2.To limit spikes and surges from lighting strikers or other high-voltage condition on
PV.
3.Earthing provides an alternative path to faulty current to flow into the earth.
4. A human body can withstand 30mA for 25ms, and even depends on body of a person.
Grounding or Earthing
• The process of connecting the metallic frame (i.e. non-current carrying
part) of electrical equipment or some electrical part of the system (e.g.
neutral point in a star-connected system, one conductor of the secondary
of a transformer etc.) to earth (i.e. soil) is called grounding or Earthing.
Grounding or earthing may be classified as:
• Equipment grounding.
• System grounding.
STAND ALONE PV SYSTEM
Enclosure
Equipment Grounding
The process of connecting non-current-carrying metal parts (i.e. metallic enclosure)
of the electrical equipment to earth (i.e. soil) in such a way that in case of insulation
failure, the enclosure effectively remains at earth potential is called equipment
grounding.
(i) Ungrounded enclosure
(ii) enclosure connected to neutral wire
(iii) ground wire connected to enclosure.
There can be three scenarios:
Ungrounded enclosure
Enclosure connected to neutral wire
Ground wire connected to enclosure
System Grounding
The process of connecting some electrical part of the power system (e.g. neutral point of a star
connected system, one conductor of the secondary of a transformer etc.) to earth (i.e. soil) is called
system grounding
Grounding
