PROCEDURE FOR EARTHING

1.0 PURPOSE:

This Job procedure describes the installation of earthing and lightning protection
systems for electrical equipments and structures.

2.0 Codes & Standards


The earthing installation conforms to the following latest standards/statutory provisions.
IS: 3043, IS: 7689, IS: 2309, OISD 110,

50 2.1 REFERENCES:

1. EIL specification – 6 – 51 – 0084 Rev 4

3.0 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE


1. The earth electrode shall be located 1.5 meter away from the nearby civil foundation or
buildings.
2. The exact location of the earthing electrode shall be determine by the site by consulting with the
engineer incharge with reference to the approved earthing layout.
3. The depth of the electrode installation shall be made as per the code of practice.
4. Distance between the two electrodes shall be twice of the length of the electrode.
5. The location of the earth electrode shall be provide sign board with details of serial number,
resistance value and tested date.
6. Disconnecting links shall be provided the earthing electrode for disconnect during the time of
resistance test.
7. Links shall be tighten with GI bolt nuts without air gap.
8. Individual earth electrodes shall be connected with main earth mat minimum two or more conductor
depending on specification of electrode.
9. Water line shall be provide the electrodes depending on the approved specification.

3.3 Earth mat or gird


Earthing System in a Sub Station comprises of Earth Mat or Grid, Earth Electrode, Earthing Conductor
and Earth Connectors.

1 Earth Mat or Grid Primary requirement of Earthing is to have a low earth resistance.
2. By reducing the high resistance, individual electrodes are inter linked inside the soil minimum
500mm depth its increases the area in contact with soil and creates number of parallel paths.
3.The earth mat shall be made through flat or rod conductor and size of the conductor shall as per
installation standard and approved earthing layout.

4. Individual electrodes are parallel linked with flats or rod to states the combined earth value which
will be much lower than the individual value.

5. The earth mat shall be made properly by considering the safe limit of Step Potential, Touch Potential
and Transfer Potential by approved earth mat design calculation.
6. The earth conductor shall be laid the trench crossing below the 300mm from bottom of the trench.

3.4 Joint and Welding

1. Earthing conductor joint shall be provide minimum double of the conductor width on overlapping with
arc welding work as per approved typical layout which is approved by client.

2. Before joint the conductor shall be removed the paints or any other non conducting materials from the
jointing parts.

3. For Bolted type joints shall be made the hole as per specified bolt nut sizes.

4. Flat and spring washer shall be provided in the jointing bolt nuts and provide proper torque as per
specification.

5. the Hardware shall be used in hot tip galvanized or zinc passivated.


50
6. Buried flat joints are shall be provide two coats of bitumen paint and covering with hessian tape.

4.0 TYPES OF EARTHING

4.1 System earthing

System earthing primarily concerned with the protection of Electrical equipment by stabilizing the voltage
with respect to ground.
1. It is the protection for the operation system. HV and LV Neutral of the power transformer winding and
earth.
2. Neutral earthing and electrodes shall be provide separately with reference to the approved earthing
layouts.

4.2 Equipment earthing


1. Earthing shall be done the metallic current carrying part of the electrical equipments like transformer,
breakers, HV & LV panels etc.

2. Lightning earthing(shield wire) shall be provide test link box for testing and separate earthing shall be
provide based on typical earthing layout.

3. Fencing earthing shall be provide with 10meters interval as per approved layout and gates shall be
earthed with flexible cu wire.

4. For cable tray earthing flats shall be run along with cable tray and shall be made a links of all rows in
10 meters intervals.

5. Plant instrument and electronic earthing shall be provide seprate with the gird earthing.

5.0 TESTING AND COMMISSIONING

1. Individual earth electrode resistance shall be measured after disconnecting from the gird by using
earth resistance testing kit.
2. Earth gird resistance shall be measured after connected all earth electrodes to the gird.
3. Resistance shall be measured at electrical equipment neutral earthing point.
4. Resistance shall be measured at earthing of structure lightning point.

All the earthing as built drawing and test report (2 set hard copy and one set soft copy )shall be
submitted to client.
