Safety and Earthing is a very crucial aspect in the power industry that ensures personnel and equipment protection. Earthing provides a low resistance path to the fault current which safely gets discharged in the ground, thereby preventing hazards. Safety includes adherence to standard operating procedures.
In this page, articles related to safety and earthing followed in the industry are discussed in details which are benificial for practicing engineers and students in this field.
