WHY #GROUND?

Personnel safety is provided by low impedance grounding and bonding between metallic equipment, chassis, piping, and other conductive objects so that currents, due to faults or lightning, do not result in voltages sufficient to cause a shock hazard.

The proper operation of overcurrent protective devices is frequently dependent upon low impedance fault current paths.

Proper grounding aids in electrical Noise Reduction.

Leaking electricity has the potential to start a fire if not redirected safely.

? #Grounding

Equipment grounding means the connection of earth ground to non-current carrying conductive materials such as conduit, cable trays, junction boxes, enclosures, and motor frames.

? @instrument

System grounding means the connection of earth ground to neutral points of current carrying conductors such as the neutral point of a circuit, a transformer, rotating machinery, or a system, either solidly or with a current-limiting device.
