A well-designed earthing system is the fundamental requirement for any electrical structure or system, regardless of the voltage level. International standards such as IEC 62305 and BS 7430 play a crucial role in ensuring safety by defining earthing design practices for various electrical installations. Earthing systems consist of earth electrodes, ...
What is Lightning Arrester’s Coverage Area? The coverage area of a Lightning Arrester (or Air Terminal) is the area within which the arrester can effectively protect a structure from lightning strikes. This area is determined by the spacing between air terminals. In this blog, we have explained the Lightning Arrester’s ...
Let’s dive into the world of Covered Conductor Accessories, an essential component in the electrical distribution network. The significance of these accessories cannot be overstated, as they play a pivotal role in ensuring the reliability and efficiency of power distribution systems.

Smart meters record information on electrical energy consumption, voltage levels, current and power factors. They offer greater clarity on this information to the electrical service providers regarding electrical consumption, help with monitoring the system, and billing. They use advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) that differs from automatic meter reading (AMR.). They ...
Cable Gland is the ‘mechanical cable entry device’ attached to the end of electrical cables and secures them to any piece of equipment. They are also commonly known as cable connectors, cable fittings, cord grips, or cable strain reliefs. Cable Glands are vital for terminating cables in harsh or hazardous ...
Cable lugs are electrical components used to safely connect wires and cable terminals to electrical equipment or terminate them. They are designed to easily and securely connect and disconnect electrical joints permanently or for maintenance. There are different types of cable lugs available for various electrical applications. They are essential ...
The distribution box serves as the load centre and distributor of electrical power. A distribution box ensures that electrical supply is distributed in the building, also known as a distribution board, panel board, breaker panel, or electric panel. It is the central electrical supply system of any building or property. ...
Earthing is an important part of electrical distribution lines. Installation of a protective grounding on the power line structure creates a safe work zone. It neutralises leakages or short-circuit current and offers a simple and easy path for the current to the earth with zero damage potential. Importance of Earthing ...
The fundamental role of any substation earthing is to dissipate the short circuit current into the earth without drying out the area and to limit the potential gradient throughout the substation to maintain the step and touch voltages within safe values. There are two features considered during the design of ...
