To set up the TT grounding scheme, I have to create one or more grounding electrodes for metal masses or specific equipment. It is that famous grounding system well known by many electricians where I place at least 3 rods in a triangle or in a line, and connect this grounding to the electrical panel (QDC or QGBT) but I do not equipotentialize this grounding with the neutral (connection with the neutral) and I also do not do it with the other metal structures. This is the famous TT grounding scheme. Now let's look at the restrictions of the TT scheme according to NBR-5410: The prescriptions described below must be followed: a) in the TT scheme, in the automatic sectioning aiming at protection against electric shocks, differential-residual current devices (DR devices) must be used; b) the following condition must be met: RA x Idn must be less than or equal to UL where: RA is the sum of the resistances, in ohms, of the grounding electrode and the protective conductors of the masses; Idn is the nominal residual differential current of the DR device, in amperes; UL is the limit contact voltage, in volts. NOTE The limit contact voltages for different situations, depending on the dominant external influences, are given in Annex C. When, in the same installation, there are masses in different situations (for example, some masses under external influences characterized as situation 1 and other masses in situation 2) and connected to the same grounding electrode, the lowest UL value must be adopted. Observing the texts of the standard above, we can conclude that the use of the TT grounding system requires the installation of the IDR (DR) in all electrical circuits of the building. We can conclude that the TT grounding scheme is the worst grounding scheme that should be used. What ELETRICITY recommends as an adequate grounding scheme for both residential and commercial buildings is the TN-S grounding scheme. Here on the channel, you must have heard the terms “grounding scheme”, “equipotentialization”, “grounding electrodes” and “BEP” a lot. Let’s break down the terms a little more so you can understand them better: Grounding scheme – Format or characteristic of your grounding assembly according to the 4 conditions permitted by the standard (TN-C, TT, IT, TN-S). Equipotentialization – Placing all the masses (metallic) and metallic structures of a building at the same electrical potential. Grounding electrodes – Set of cables, rods, connectors and other accessories that make up a grounding system. BEP – Main equipotentialization busbar. ????
