GROUNDS FOR GROUNDING

Gain a comprehensive understanding of all aspects of grounding theory and application in this new, expanded edition

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. 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.

In Grounds for Grounding, readers will discover a complete and thorough approach to the topic that blends theory and practice to demonstrate that a few rules apply to many applications. The book provides basic concepts of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) that act as the foundation for understanding grounding theory and its applications. Each avenue of grounding is covered in its own chapter, topics from safety aspects in facilities, lightning, and NEMP to printed circuit board, cable shields, and enclosure grounding, and more.

Grounds for Grounding readers will also find:
_ Revised and updated information presented in every chapter
_ New chapters on grounding for generators, uninterruptible power sources (UPSs)
_ New appendices including a grounding design checklist, grounding documentation content, and grounding verification procedures

Grounds for Grounding is a useful reference for engineers in circuit design, equipment, and systems, as well as power engineers, platform, and facility designers.
