Rule 10-210 requires the grounding connection of the supply authority system grounded conductor (neutral) to be made at one point only at the consumer's service and have no other connection to metal parts of the electrical equipment on the supply or load side from where the grounding. y information developed by and for exclusive use of Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) Distribution Network. Your acceptance of the document is an a knowledgment that it must be used for the identified purpose/application and during the period indicated. Abstract: Discussed in this recommended practice is the system grounding of industrial and commercial power systems. The National Electrical Code (NEC) dictates the minimum size of this conductor based on the size of the largest ungrounded service-entrance conductors. IN ELECTRICAL STATIONS INCLUDING TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SUBSTAT GR THAN 8 FT FROM THE FENCE. THE FENCE SHALL BE GROUNDED SEPARATELY FROM THE GRID UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED ON THE A PROPRIATE PROJECT DRAWING.
