International Code for Plant Earthing

01/12/2012 11:18 PM

Sir

For substation and power plant earthing i.e mat earthing we naturally follow IEE 80-1980 . But for plant earthing i.e with GI strip and earth electrode kindly inform the relevant code(IEC/IEE) to do that design.

best regard

Are we talking of an Ufer grounding system? Google Ufer grounding and then get back if I'm right.

For natural plant earthing lets say a steel processing plant. The earthing is naturally carried out with GI strip around the plant and other buildings .and numbers of electrodes are placed. I want to kneo relevant international code for this design. We use IEEE 80 for substation grounding which is naturally done by rebar of different dia and rebar mat is formed with specified distence.

Hope I have made it clear
