  • Grounding Requirements for Secondary Distribution Boxes in Engineering

    Grounding Requirements for Secondary Distribution Boxes in Engineering

    The requirements for equipment grounding electrodes are found in NESC Rule 94. These are installed for each distribution transformer or lightning arrester instal-lation. The NESC requires a minimum electrode nominal diameter of 1/2" or 5/8", depending upon material, and a. Grounding is a mechanism to protect distribution equipment and people under normal operating conditions, abnormal operational (overcurrent and overvoltage) responses, and hazardous conditions such as shocks. Grounding is necessary to assure correct operation of electrical devices, to assure safety. Abstract: System grounding considerations affect many aspects of an electrical system. Each DISTRIBUTION BOX and controller must be grounded. 26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used.
