EARTHING FOR ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

I. Quality of Zinc

Minimum weight of zinc coating for mild steel flats with thickness upto 6 mm in

accordance with IS:6745-1972 shall be 400 g/sqm.

6.10 Chemical Earthing System – specification

Earthing system should offer a resistance of less than 2 ohms throughout the year. In places

where Soil resistivity is more, total length of the earthing rod has to be increased by adding

1m length rods (one over the other) to achieve low and stable resistance value. In rocky

places ,multiple earth rods have to be installed and inter-connected to get the required

Solid Copper coated rods are recommended as earth electrode than a pipe due to the fact

that solid rods have much longer life and can be easily driven by electric/hydraulic hammers.

Copper has much longer life than all other materials as explained in IS 3043. Deep driven

rods provide more stable and less Earth Resistance. Doubling the length of the rod will

reduce earth resistance up to 40 %, whereas doubling the diameter will reduce the

resistance by only 10 %, but may increase the cost by 4 times.Lower earth resistance can

also be achieved by increasing the number of earth rods. E.g. 40 % reduction in earth

resistance is possible if the rods are increased from 1 to 2. The minimum spacing between

earth pits should be equal to TWICE the length of the rod. Increasing the spacing between

earth pits also reduces the earth resistance significantly.

Need and importance of Earthing:

 Human and Personnel safety.

 Equipment protection.

 Provides low impedance path for fault currents.

 To ensure good quality power.

Maintenance Requirements

1. Maintenance Requirements

(ii) The Contractor shall repair or rectify any Defect or deficiency set forth in Paragraph 2 of this

Schedule-E within the time limit specified therein and any failure in this behalf shall

constitute non-fulfilment of the DLP obligations by the Contractor.

(iii) All Materials, works and construction operations shall conform to the MORTH

Specifications for Road and Bridge Works, and the relevant IRC publications. Where the

specifications for a work are not given, Good Industry Practice shall be adopted.

2. Repair/rectification of Defects and deficiencies

The obligations of the Contractor in respect of Maintenance Requirements shall include

repair and rectification of the Defects and deficiencies specified in Annex - I of this Schedule-

E within the time limit set forth therein.

any deviation or deterioration beyond the permissible limit shall be repaired or rectified by

the Contractor within the time limit specified by the Authority’s Engineer.

4. Extension of time limit

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary specified in this Schedule-E, if the nature and

extent of any Defect or deficiency justifies more time for its repair or rectification than the

time specified herein, the Contractor shall be entitled to additional time in conformity with

Good Industry Practice. Such additional time shall be determined by the Authority’s Engineer

and conveyed to the Contractor and the Authority with reasons thereof.

5. Emergency repairs/restoration

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Schedule-E, if any Defect,

deficiency or deterioration in the Project Highway poses a hazard to safety or risk of damage

to property, the Contractor shall promptly take all reasonable measures for eliminating or

minimizing such danger.

6. Daily inspection by the Contractor

7. Pre-monsoon inspection / Post-monsoon inspection

The Contractor shall carry out a detailed pre-monsoon inspection of all bridges, culverts and

drainage system before [1st June] every year in accordance with the guidelines contained in

IRC: SP35. Report of this inspection together with details of proposed maintenance works as

required on the basis of this inspection shall be sent to the Authority’s Engineer before the

[10th June] every year. The Contractor shall complete the required repairs before the onset

of the monsoon and send to the Authority’s Engineer a compliance report. Post monsoon

inspection shall be done by the [30th September] and the inspection report together with

details of any damages observed and proposed action to remedy the same shall be sent to

the Authority’s Engineer.

8. Repairs on account of natural calamities

All damages occurring to the Project Highway on account of a Force Majeure Event or wilful

default or neglect of the Authority shall be undertaken by the Authority at its own cost. The

Authority may instruct the Contractor to undertake the repairs at the rates agreed between

Annex-I : Repair/rectification of Defects and deficiencies

The Contractor shall repair and rectify the Defects and deficiencies specified in this Annex-I of Schedule-E within the time limit set forth in the table
