Grounding design and installation are crucial to ensure the safety and performance of any electrical or electronic system irrespective of size. Successful grounding design requires a thorough familiarity with theory combined with practical experience with real-world systems.
Grounds for Grounding is a useful reference for engineers in circuit design, equipment, and systems, as well as power engineers, platform, and facility designers.
Recently added “...Note: Tanks that rest directly on a foundation of soil, asphalt or concrete are inherently grounded for purposes of dissipation of electrostatic discharges. The addition of grounding rods or similar devices will not reduce the hazard associated with electrostatic charges in the stored product.
Successful grounding design requires a thorough familiarity with theory combined with practical experience with real-world systems. Rarely taught in schools due to its complexity, identifying and implementing the appropriate solution to grounding problems is nevertheless a vital skill in the industrial world for any electrical engineer.
