: The potential difference experienced by a person bridging a 1-meter distance with their feet while walking on the earth's surface.
The primary intent of IEEE Std 80-2013 is to establish safe limits for potential differences that can be contacted by the human body during a ground fault. Its scope covers: ieee std 80 2013
4.1 Objectives of grounding 4.2 Tolerable body current limits 4.3 Effect of frequency on body impedance 4.4 Criteria for tolerable touch and step voltages : The potential difference experienced by a person
, titled the "IEEE Guide for Safety in AC Substation Grounding," is the globally recognized standard for designing safe and effective grounding systems in outdoor AC substations. It provides the analytical methods and safety criteria necessary to protect personnel from hazardous electrical potentials during fault conditions. Core Purpose and Scope It provides the analytical methods and safety criteria
6.1 Division of fault current between grid and neutral 6.2 Asymmetrical current factor (decrement factor) 6.3 Current split factor (grid current vs. remote earth)
