4.8.5 Grounding
Bonding
Low-resistance connections to ground reduce the risk of electric shock in case of a
short-circuit or system fault. Low-impedance connections (large surface, large-
surface contact) reduces the effects of interference on the system or the emission
of interference signals. Here, effective shielding of cables and devices is also a
significant contribution.
Warning
All protection class 1 devices, as well as all larger metal parts, must be connected
to protective ground. This is the only way to ensure that the system user is
protected from electrical shock. It also deflects interference which is emitted from
external power supply cables and signal cables to cables connected to I/O devices.
Measures for protective grounding
The table below shows an overview of the most important measures for protective
grounding.
