EARTHING SYSTEMS
TYPES OF
INTRODUCTION TO EARTHING SYSTEMS
Definition: Earthing is an efficient way of protecting the
appliances from electrical hazard when current surge
or overload current is supplied.
Purpose: To provide a safe path for fault currents and
minimize electrical hazards.
COMMON TYPES OF EARTHING SYSTEMS
• TT System (Terre-Terre)
• Description: Separate grounding for each electrical
installation.
• Application: Common in residential and small-scale
installations.
COMMON TYPES OF EARTHING SYSTEMS
2. TN System (Terre-Neutre)
• Description: Combined grounding for earth and
neutral conductors.
• Types: TN-C, TN-S, TN-C-S.
• Application: Common in industrial and commercial
installations.
COMMON TYPES OF EARTHING SYSTEMS
3. IT System (Isolated Terre)
• Description: No direct connection to earth; high insulation.
• Application: Sensitive environments like hospitals and data
centers.
SELECTION CRITERIA
Choosing the right earthing system depends on factors such
as:
• Electrical load and equipment.
• Soil resistivity.
• Environmental conditions.
• Safety regulations and codes.
KEY CONSIDERATIONS
• Soil Resistivity Measurement
• Grounding Electrodes Selection
• Fault Current Path
• Step and Touch Voltage Analysis
EXAMPLES
• TT System Example: Residential Building
• TN System Example: Commercial Complex
• IT System Example: Hospital
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
• TT System: Simple but may offer limited protection.
• TN System: Common and balanced but can be
affected by ground faults.
• IT System: High reliability but complex and costly.
CONCLUSION
• The choice of earthing system is critical for
electrical safety.
• Selection should be based on specific requirements
and regulations.
• Regular maintenance and testing are essential for
the effectiveness of the chosen system.
