Electrical system, grounding

The subject of electric system grounding is broad and complex, and is discussed here in brief overview. [Pg.714]

Protection from electric shocks (grounding system)... [Pg.375]

Theory of overvoltages Analysis of ungrounded and grounded systems The necessity of grounding an electrical system Analysis of a grounded system ... [Pg.997]

Grounded Y versus ungrounded delta electrical system... [Pg.220]

Grounding. Grounding is another way to provide protection from electric shock however, it is nonnally a secondary protective measure. By grounding a tool or electrical system, a low-resistance patlr to tire earth Uirough a ground coimection or comiections is intentionally created. Wlien properly done, tliis patli offers sufficiently low resistance and lias sufficient current-cariy ing capacity to prevent the buildup of voltages that may result... [Pg.190]

A program to ensure that a well-designed and effective electrical earth-grounding system and equipment bonding system is in place is an essential first step in... [Pg.35]

The vehicle is 12 volt grounded with a 12 volt electrical system and has very little distance to travel. If the 110 volt is also grounded to the 12 volt then there would be feedback and the engine would not run. The relays provide the time lapse for the 110 volt not to be continuously grounded to the engine, this delay prevents the 110 volts from overriding the 12 volt system in the rest of the vehicle. [Pg.10]

Ground loop — Potentially detrimental loop formed when two or more points in an electrical system that are nominally at ground potential are connected by a conducting path such that either or both points are not at the same ground potential. [Pg.15]

Grounding of electrical systems is mandated by the electrical codes that govern the operation of electrical power systems. The National Electrical Code (NEC) in the U.S. is the body that lays out requirements for electrical systems for premises. However, the NEC does not cover installations in ships, railways, or aircraft or underground in mines or electrical installations under the exclusive control of utilities. [Pg.121]

Article 250 of the NEC requires that the following electrical systems of 50 to 1000 V should be grounded ... [Pg.121]

The grounding of household electrical systems to the plumbing can increase corrosion rates and the subsequent leaching of lead from the lead solder used for copper pipes. Areas where the pH of the water is less than 8.0 may have higher lead drinking water levels as well. [Pg.1519]

GROUND CONDUCTOR - Conductor run in an electrical system, which is deliberately connected to the ground electrode. Purpose is to provide a ground point throughout the system. Insulation color green. Also called "green ground". [Pg.80]

Ground - A device used to protect the user of any electrical system or appliance from shock. [Pg.359]
