Power system earthing arrangements
TT system
Note that overvoltages may be caused by separate earth electrodes for which the
potentials vary differently.
TN-C system
If the distribution system is TN-C, it is highly recommended to adopt a TN-S system
right from the building entry point.
The various power system earthing
arrangements are equivalent for the safety
of persons and have little effect in relation
to EMC.
Certain features of the different
arrangements must nevertheless be taken
into account.
