This document outlines the typical earthing features used in underground tunnels, including: using a 250 sqmm bare copper main earth wire along tunnels and platforms; interconnecting rebar, concrete, and other conductive materials at gaps, joints, and section ends; bonding the rails to the main earth wire every 1000m; earthing tunnel rebar, walkways, equipment, and other infrastructure; providing main earth terminals for trackside equipment; and using earth mats and electrodes at stations and other locations.

Typical Earthing Features of Earthing in underground tunnels
• EMC Study and Recommendations by Enotrac – UK
• Main Earth wire – TEW 250 sqmm bare cu on both tunnels and station Platforms also. • RC and OPC on ROCS supports duly interconnected at Air gaps/EJs/X-Os and section ends and wire ends. • At 1000m (max) Impedance Bond Earthing to Rails by Cad welding, Earthing integration and inter track Bonding . • Tunnel Rebar, Stair case, Walk way, Hand rails, Fire hydrant, water pipe, Platform rebars,Cable Trays, Air ducts, Ventilation Equipments, TBF Earthing • Provision of Main Earth Terminals various track side Equipments Earthing • Signal and associated Equipments Earthing. • All Earth mats (ASS/SR/Satellite/Station Main) interconnection to TEW at stations • Short Circuit Bonds and inter track Bonding and other connections at Dead end. • Bonding with Cad welding at Impedance Bonds and at Turnouts for Insulated Rail Joints, Toe points. • Mats – ASS mat, SR Mat, Station Mat, Clean Mat, Satellite Mat, Earth electrodes, Cu Plate Earth Pits.
