Each DISTRIBUTION BOX and controller must be grounded. 26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. Grounding of the units:Today, we're diving deep into the world of distribution box grounding, breaking down the standards, and shining a light on those sneaky mistakes that even experienced electricians sometimes make. Preparation: First, you need to prepare some necessary tools, including grounding wire, grounding rod, voltmeter, insulating gloves and insulating tools. This helps to reduce the potential difference that exists between conductive parts and the earth. Equipment Protection: Grounding protects substation. The grounding system provides a low-impedance path for fault current and limits the voltage rise on the normally non-current-carrying metallic components of the electrical distribution system.
