> Hello all,
>
> I want to clarify some of my thoughts regarding the ground bond
> specification for production line.
> EN 50116 for ITE specifies the earthing terminal or earthing contact may
> not exceed 0.1 ohms when 1.5 times the current capacity of hazardous
> circuits is applied, but not more than 25 A (ac or dc) for 60 seconds.
> The CSA standard C22.2 No. 0.4-M1982 "Bonding and grounding of Electrical
> Equipment" specifies for cord-connected equipment twice the rating of the
> attachment plug capacity, but not less than 30 A, 60 Hz current for 2
> minutes.
> I am wondering which of these standards is applicable for routine test in
> production field. I think that EN 50116 is, but I am a little bit
> embarrassed by the CSA requirements of 30A and want to know your ideas on
> basis of a longer experience than mine.
> I appreciate any response to this e-mail. Thank you.
