I am trying to find the construction requirements, and the standards that set these requirements, for a protective earth(ing) terminal. Many of us have learned that there needs to be locking washers and nuts between each ring lug. But where is this actually called out and required? I am trying to show the engineering department were I work which parts of this "good practice" are actually requirements of the requirements we will be claiming to meet. I have found a diagram at www.phihong/html/grounding.html (Phihong.com) that shows reasonable grounding technique. But this web site does not site any standard as a basis for the technique. I have searched 60601-1:1988 and 60950:95 looking for requirements and a diagram. I have found resistance requirements, 0.1 ohm max in 60601-1, section 18 f), but I can not find construction explicit requirements. Does anyone know if any standard includes explicit construction requirements for a protective earth terminal and for connections to a PE terminal? Thank you.
