2. Access mat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_mat

   An access mat is a portable platform used to support equipment used in construction and other resource-based activities, including drilling rigs, camps, tanks, and helipads. It may also be used as a structural roadway to provide passage over unstable ground, pipelines and more.

3. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

   If a second ground fault occurs, a ground fault protection relay must trip the breaker to protect the circuit. On an HRG system, a sensing resistor is used to continuously monitor system continuity. If an open-circuit is detected (e.g., due to a broken weld on the NGR), the monitoring device will sense voltage through the sensing resistor and ...

4. Ground reinforcement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_reinforcement

   Ground reinforcement is a reinforcing element placed on a flat surface in order to increase accessibility for vehicles and ensure proper rainwater drainage in addition to protection. The reinforcing element, usually in the form of grids, is used beneath grass , asphalt , concrete in roads , parking lots , driveways and paths .

5. Antistatic device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antistatic_device

   Typical resistance is on the order of 10 5 to 10 8 ohms between points on the mat and to ground. [11] [12] The mat would need to be grounded (earthed). This is usually accomplished by plugging into the grounded line in an electrical outlet. It is important to discharge at a slow rate, therefore a resistor should be used in grounding the mat ...

6. Anti-intrusion bar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-intrusion_bar

   An anti-intrusion bar or beam is a passive safety device, installed in most cars and other ground vehicles, which must protect passengers from side impacts. [1] Side impacts are particularly dangerous for two reasons: a) the location of impact is very close to the passenger, who can be immediately reached by the impacting vehicle; b) in many side-impact accidents, the impacting vehicle may be ...

7. Ground support equipment - Wikipedia

   A de/anti-icing vehicle de-icing the wing of a Croatia Airlines aircraft. The procedure of de/anti-icing, protection from fluids freezing up on aircraft, is done from special vehicles. These vehicles have booms, like a cherry picker, to allow easy access to the entire aircraft. A hose sprays a special mixture that melts current ice on the ...
