All: I submitted a question several weeks back regarding equipotential bonding, and garnered the following definition (paraphrased here): Equipotential bonding basically refers to the scheme of grounding all co-located equipment to a common reference (i.e., building steel). Equipotential bonding is the name given to the general case (room or building); grounding / earthing are the names for the specific cases (circuits or a piece of equipment).
Now the real question... in consideration of IEC 60950 6.1.2.1 note 2 (Norwegian variation) where equipotential bonding is specified: other than a telecom CO, where can equipotential bonding be assumed? In a telephone equipment closet / room? What about an office environment? John Boucher Lucent Technologies --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
