PE advice by Napit (hot tubs)

ebee

There is an article in PE and I have just received it via email.

I am disappointed that the article seems to suggest that it contains all you need to know yet no mention is made of earthing systems

    But also, this is only the earth electrode resistance, not the effective resistance from the transformer earth to the point at which you are standing … 

    Which is probably just what you want if you want to calculate the voltage between the MET and the ground at the consumer's installation - it's less likely that the victim will have long enough arms to be touching part of the consumer's installation while stood next to the substation.
