Utilities in the United States and Canada have done extensive analysis of the ground grid design for substations in order to limit step and touch potentials to safe values; however, few have analyzed the potential hazard and designed grounding systems for pad-mount transformers. Since the kVA size and voltage ratings of pad-mounts have increased and the exterior of these facilities are accessible...
In this IEEE guide, grounding practices that have generally been accepted by the electric utility industry as contributing to effective grounding systems for personnel safety and equipment protection in generating stations are identified. A guide for the design of generating station grounding systems and for grounding practices applied to generating station indoor and outdoor structures and equipment,...
The purpose of this report is to provide guidance for the design of grounding systems for instrumentation and control equipment specific to power generating stations. It also includes consideration of the requirements for the grounding of systems associated with the interconnection of the station to adjacent substations since these are a large source of electrical noise. The grounding methods in this...
