  2. Isolated ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolated_ground

    The primary reason for the use of isolated grounds (IG) is to provide a noise-free ground return, separate from the equipment grounding (EG) return. The EG circuit includes all of the metal conduit, outlet boxes, and metal enclosures that contain the wiring and must be grounded to provide a safe return path in case of fault currents.

  3. Groundbed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundbed

    The electrodes for electrical grounding are often called ground rods and are often made from steel with a copper clad surface – typically 1 to 2 m long and 20 millimetres (0.79 in) in diameter. These are driven vertically into the ground and bonded together with bare copper wire. [1]

  4. Earthing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthing_system

    While the national wiring regulations for buildings of many countries follow the IEC 60364 terminology, in North America (United States and Canada), the term "equipment grounding conductor" refers to equipment grounds and ground wires on branch circuits, and "grounding electrode conductor" is used for conductors bonding an earth/ground rod ...

  5. Ufer ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ufer_Ground

    The extremely dry soil conditions would have required hundreds of feet of rods to be driven into the earth to create a low impedance ground to protect the buildings from lightning strikes. In 1942, Herbert G. Ufer was a consultant working for the U.S. Army. Ufer was given the task of finding a lower cost and more practical alternative to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-heating_food_packaging

    Self-heating rice with quicklime and water as heating source, taken before adding water to quicklime. The source of the heat for the self-heated can is an exothermic reaction that the user initiates by pressing on the bottom of the can. The can is manufactured as a triple-walled container.

  8. Multipoint ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipoint_ground

    A multipoint ground is an alternate type of electrical installation that attempts to solve the ground loop and mains hum problem by creating many alternate paths for electrical energy to find its way back to ground. The distinguishing characteristic of a multipoint ground is the use of many interconnected grounding conductors into a loose grid ...
