Earthing plate measurement

The earth electrode must safeguard the safety of the electrical system. It depends on a good connection to the surrounding soil and the earthing system. Failure of the earth electrode can lead to dangerous touch voltages. There may also be a risk that important electronic equipment does not work or is adequately protected against overvoltages.

We offer inspection and documentation of earth electrodes on:

Distribution network
Line network
Industrial plant
Secondary stations
Power stations

Measuring technique

There are various methods for measuring the transition resistance and the quality of earth electrodes. We adapt the measurement method according to the customer's wishes and the scope of the facility. As a customer of Trainor, you get full follow-up by qualified personnel with a high level of expertise in measuring methods and equipment. The result of the inspection is analyzed and documented in relation to the current regulatory requirements for earthing systems.

Formal requirements

In FEF:2006 , FEL and NEK 440:2015 there are specific requirements for checking the earthing system. Among them, important and exposed parts of the earthing system must be checked periodically, and at least every ten years.
