Just thought I would start some posts for some of the less experienced lads on here, and for guys who are predominately domestic.
Here is the start of what is going to be a 3 story building. Grd floor workshops and tech area 1st floor will be classrooms and briefing areas and offices final floor offices, conference room, etc
Because of the system here we do get our protective earth from the supply transfomer which is going to be installed during this build. Which was sized as 700KVA
Above though is going to be part of the earthing system as well, but will be more functional earthing. This will be tied in with earth pits and will form a 1ohm requirement for IT. This is the famous ufer earthing system which I think as been covered on here and will when tied in with the pits will give me less than the required 1 ohm
This is the result. I have 4 x 95mm conductors on each of the 4 corners of the building and we start from there
If people are interested I'll post over the coming months, the TX installation, to the building being built and various stages of the installation till completion .
This though is just 1 of 6 new builds I have and 14 refurbs lol
