Rise of Earth Potential (RoEP) Know the Risks
Awareness of step and touch potential, caused by a rise of earth potential. Is essential for anyone working on high-voltage power transmission and distribution systems above 1 kV. A rise of earth potential A rise of earth potential is caused by electrical faults that occur at electrical substations. Power plants, or high-voltage transmission lines. Therefore, short-circuit […]
Reducing the Risk of Step and Touch Potential
Awareness of step potential and touch potential risks, caused by an earth potential rise. Is vital for anyone working on high-voltage power transmission. Also, distribution systems above 1 kV. Earth Potential Rise Earth potential rise (EPR) is caused by an imbalance of electrical charges between the earth and an electrical system, it can occur at: […]
5 Reasons Why Hot-Sites Aren’t Dangerous: Myth Busted
What is ‘HOT-ZONE’ or ‘Hot-Site’? There are so many misconceptions surrounding the whole concept of a‘Hot-Site’ and ‘Hot-Zoning’ for Electrical Earthing Designs. In this article, I attempt to simplify what ‘Hot Zone’ (or Hot Site) means in Power System terms AND crucially, explain what a ‘Hot Zone’ is not. By the end of this article, […]
