CCS grounding in the power industry

Original publication: · Reviewed:

Power-industry grounding requirements depend on the facility and fault study. Specify conductor size, fault duration, joints and inspection requirements for that installation; no single CCS grade covers every facility.

Review the application

A copper-equivalent label alone does not confirm fault-current performance, connection compatibility or suitability for the installation. The conductor and connections need a project-specific review.

Information to provide

Confirm the proposed construction

Agree on the conductor drawing, electrical duty and acceptance basis.

Review sample dimensions, electrical and mechanical data, and connection compatibility.

Complete the project-required system evaluation before accepting a material change.
