Grounding device is also called grounding integration device: electrical Electrical connection between equipment or other objects and ground equipment Building electrical construction technology )。 The grounding device consists of grounding electrode (plate) Ground bus (indoor, outdoor), grounding Downlead ( Ground jumper )The framework is composed of grounding. It is used to connect the electrical system with the earth. The metal objects that are in direct contact with the earth to realize electrical connection are grounding electrodes. It can be an artificial grounding electrode or a natural grounding electrode. This grounding electrode can be assigned with some electrical function, such as system grounding, protective grounding or signal grounding. The grounding busbar is building The reference potential point of the electrical device, through which the part to be grounded in the electrical device is connected with the grounding electrode. It also plays another role, that is, it connects all equipotential bonding wires in the electrical device, so as to realize the Total equipotential bonding The connecting line between the grounding electrode and the grounding busbar is called the grounding electrode lead.

The grounding device is composed of grounding body (round steel Angle steel , flat steel Steel pipe And connection ground wire Composition.
According to the purpose of grounding, Electrical equipment The grounding of can be divided into: working grounding Lightning protection grounding Protective grounding Instrument control grounding.
Working grounding: to ensure Power system Grounding required for normal operation. for example Neutral point directly grounded system The neutral point of the transformer in is grounded, which is used to stabilize the potential of the power grid to the ground, thus reducing the insulation to the ground.
Lightning protection grounding: it is the grounding set for the need of lightning protection. for example Lightning arrester (Line) (now called lightning rod, line, belt) Lightning arrester Is grounded in order to Lightning current Smooth introduction of the earth to reduce thunder Overvoltage , so it is also called Overvoltage protection Grounding.
Protective grounding: also known as safety grounding, is the grounding set for personal safety, that is, electrical equipment enclosure (including Cable Leather) must be grounded to prevent the electrification of the shell from endangering personal safety.
I&C grounding: thermal control system of power plant data acquisition system , computer monitoring system, transistor or microcomputer Relay protection system And telecontrol communication system to stabilize potential and prevent interference. also known as Electronic system Grounding.
Grounding resistance Basic concepts of
The grounding resistance refers to the resistance encountered when the current enters the ground through the grounding body and spreads around. The earth has a certain resistivity. If there is a current flowing through the earth, there will be different potentials everywhere. After the current is injected into the ground through the grounding body, it spreads around in the form of current field. The farther away from the grounding point, the larger the hemispherical dispersion area, the smaller the current density in the ground. Therefore, it can be considered that the resistance per unit diffusion distance and the current density in the ground are close to zero at a distance (15~20m away), where the potential is zero. as curve U=f (r) is the potential distribution on the ground surface (r is the distance from the lightning current injection point).
The potential Um at the grounding point and Grounding current The ratio of I is defined as the grounding resistance R of the point, R=Um/I. When the grounding current is a fixed value, the smaller the grounding resistance, the lower the potential Um, and vice versa. The grounding resistance mainly depends on the structure, size, buried depth and local Soil resistivity Since the resistivity of the metal grounding body is far less than the soil resistivity, the resistance of the grounding body itself can be ignored in the grounding resistance [2]

(1) General requirements
First, make full use of the natural grounding body to save investment. If the resistance of the natural grounding body measured on the spot has met the requirements of the grounding resistance value and the thermal stability conditions, it is not necessary to install a manual grounding device, otherwise, it should be installed as a supplement.
The artificial grounding device shall be arranged so that the potential distribution near the grounding device is as uniform as possible to reduce the touch voltage and step voltage and ensure personal safety.
(2) Utilization of natural grounding body
The steel structure and reinforcement of the building, the rail of the crane, the buried metal pipeline (except the pipeline of combustible liquid and combustible explosive gas), and the metal sheath of the cable laid underground with the quantity of no less than two can be used as the natural grounding body. Buildings available for transformer and distribution substation reinforced concrete The foundation is used as a natural grounding body. When using the natural grounding body, make sure that the electrical connection is good.
(3) Installation of artificial grounding body
The artificial grounding body has two basic structural types, namely, vertical burial and horizontal burial.
The commonly used vertical grounding body is a steel pipe with a diameter of 50 mm and a length of 2.5 m or an L50 × 5 angle steel. In order to reduce the impact of external temperature changes on the stray resistance, the upper end of the buried vertical grounding body should not be less than 0.7 m from the ground.
For grounding devices laid in places with strong corrosivity, hot tin plating, hot galvanizing and other anti-corrosion measures shall be taken according to the nature of corrosion, or the section shall be appropriately enlarged.
When multiple grounding bodies are close to each other, the dispersion of incoming current will crowd out each other, which is called shielding effect. This reduces the utilization rate of grounding devices, so the spacing between vertical grounding bodies should not be less than 5m, and the spacing between horizontal grounding bodies should not be less than 5m.
The grounding grid shall be arranged so that the ground potential is evenly distributed as far as possible to reduce the touch voltage and step voltage. The outer edge of the artificial grounding grid shall be closed, and each corner of the outer edge shall be made into an arc. The grounding grid of 35~110kV/6~10kV substation shall be laid with horizontal voltage equalizing tape. In order to reduce the contact voltage of the building, the horizontal distance between the grounding body and the foundation of the building shall be no less than 1.5m, generally 2~3m.

Equipotential bonding

edit
Equipotential bonding It is a measure to equalize the potential and reduce the contact voltage and eliminate the risk of electric shock caused by potential difference by adding some connecting wires without adding protective appliances. It is economical and can effectively prevent electric shock.
Equipotential bonding usually includes Total equipotential connection and Auxiliary equipotential bonding Two. The so-called total equipotential connection is to connect the PE line or PEN line of the electrical device with all nearby metal pipe components (such as grounding trunk lines, water pipes, gas pipes, heating and air conditioning pipes, and if possible, the reinforcement and metal components of the building) at the entrance to the building and the equipotential connection terminal board (namely the grounding terminal board). The total equipotential connection reduces the touch voltage by equalizing the potential, and eliminates the dangerous voltage introduced into the building from the power line.
The main purpose of the total equipotential connection is not to shorten the action time of the protective appliance, but to make the potential between the exposed conductive part and the external conductive part that can be touched at the same time approximately equal, that is, to reduce the contact voltage below the safe value. The safe voltage value is 50V under normal conditions and 25V in humid environment. When automatic power cut is adopted as a measure to prevent indirect electric shock, the total equipotential connection is indispensable.
Auxiliary equipotential connection is also called Local equipotential bonding It is to connect PE line or PEN line with all accessible exposed conductive parts and external conductive parts in a local range, so that they are at the same potential in a local range, as a supplement to the total equipotential connection. The main purpose of local equipotential bonding is to reduce the contact voltage below the safe voltage.
With Lightning protection device If the lightning protection device cannot be isolated from other facilities and personnel in the building, equipotential bonding shall also be adopted.
When some electrical devices are located outside the action area of the total equipotential bonding, they shall be installed Residual current circuit breaker And the PE line of this part should be isolated from the PE line of the power incoming line and connected to a separate grounding electrode to eliminate the dangerous voltage from outside.
