Microshocks from induced voltage

MG
Has anyone ever come across the requirement to earth a section of metallic fence to mitigate micro-shocks that may be induced by an overhead transmission line? I have looked online but there is no methodology or guidance value listed other than just "earth the fence".


Any info would be useful.


Thanks

    HI Mike (MG)


    At some point late last year, I posted a question along much the same lines, except I was earthing fences on a Railway line platform - as these have overhead H/V near by for the trains.......


    There was some really good information on that topic about the why we need to do this and why I needed to use 25mm and what we were trying to achieve. 


    If you can use this stupid new search function better than I - search my name and look for the topic along the lines of earthing a fence or temporary fences.


    Something along those lines.


    On the old IET forums platform I'd have found that in seconds - I don't know where that thread has gone now. 


    Kind Regards
