Questions regarding grounding on the pipe rack
Thread Content
I’m seeking advice from experts on forums – is it feasible to ground it this way? Some experts say it’s possible while others say it’s not; the issue mainly relates to the branching of parallel pipes. Please explain how parallel pipes are defined
It should work; just make equipotential connections at the separation distances of the parallel pipes
This is the standard approach for electrostatic grounding of pipelines in utility tunnels in general design
This is usually the way to do it, but experts now say that series grounding is not allowed; it should be changed to parallel grounding!
As soon as the “expert” who is restricting you speaks, you just carry out what they say. As for whether it is reasonable, doing a bit more in terms of safety has its advantages. In principle, the requirement for an “expert” seems to be correct. In one case, the grounding of the microcomputer must be independent and cannot be connected to other shared grounds. In the early days, damage to meters caused by the Japanese was due to burns on the meters resulting from electric welding of grounding wires. For reference.
Today’s experts, well, they’re better at deceiving people than anyone else; there aren’t many who are honest. It seems that if you don’t find some problems, you can’t demonstrate your skill level; as a result, things get done carelessly.
