Answer / chandru_williams

Body earthing by cable armour is not the correct way of
earthing a machine. armour earthing and gland earthing of
cables is done to prevent any shock which occurs in cable
or gland

According to IS 3043 of earthing , it is essential to
provide double earthing for a machine body eaither through
copper or GI falt according to its calculated short circuit
current rating.

Answer / santosh kawade

Carrying out body earthing of machine by using cable armour
is not a proper way of earthing.

We have use two seperate earthing cables for body earthing
and these cable have to be taken from two seperate sources
of earthing points.

IS standard no. is not remembered, require to check the
same.
