Grounding Paper

Effective grounding, or earthing, of the distribution system neutral is necessary to achieve several objectives, the most important of which is the safety of the public and utility personnel.

DISTRIBUTION BOX

Each DISTRIBUTION BOX and controller must be grounded. On the US market, a 5.26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used.

Distribution System Grounding

It is recommended to ground the neutral at various strategic locations in distribution substations, overhead lines and underground cables, distribution transformers, and all loads.
