Grounding in Power Transmission and Distribution Networks
Power transmission and distribution systems are earthed for electric shock and fault protection. This chapter presents the principles and practices of grounding for power systems.

Grounding and bonding are the basis upon which safety and power quality are built. The grounding system provides a low-impedance path for fault current and limits the voltage rise on the normally non-current-carrying metallic components of the electrical distribution system. This helps to reduce the potential difference that exists between conductive parts and the earth. A ground of all overhead line distribution equipment is always grounded and bonded to cont all be consider as a priority, if not available. IN ELECTRICAL STATIONS INCLUDING TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SUBSTAT GR THAN 8 FT FROM THE FENCE. THE FENCE SHALL BE GROUNDED SEPARATELY FROM THE GRID UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED ON THE A PROPRIATE PROJECT DRAWING. When lightning strikes or a rogue voltage surge decides to crash the party, proper grounding steps in like a seasoned bouncer, redirecting danger away from.
