Earthing / Grounding

(The term earthing is commonly used in Europe, whereas grounding is more prevalent in USA)

Electricity can and will kill people unless it is controlled effectively. Even in seemingly low risk sites, electrical management is the main determiner for human safety, not to mention preservation and protection of equipment and facilities. Of all areas earthing / grounding must be the primary concern, and demanding of competent, experienced operatives conversant with the latest industry standards. JMI harnesses the best equipment, the most sophisticated software and the expertise of its engineers to help clients create a safe environment.

What is earthing / grounding and why do we need it?

The most important cable in any electrical system is the earth cable, which directs fault currents safely away from the location by allowing it to dissipate into the strata of the earth. Electricity, be it in the form of a supply or lightning, is always seeking for the most direct and easy path to ground and through astute planning, a site may dictate and provide that route. If a location does not have an adequate earthing/grounding provision it may lead to electricity finding alternate methods to ground, this is often through electrical equipment, but could easily be via human beings.
