The equipotential bonding based the earthing sys-
tem fulfils the following functions:
• Protection against electric shock IEC 60364-4-41
• Protective equipotential bonding IEC 60364-5-54
• Lightning protection equipotential bonding IEC
62305
• Energy systems and surge protection IEC 60364-
4-44
• Low-voltage electrical installations IEC 60364-5-
54
• Data cabling and shielding 50310
• Electromagnetic compatibility EMC Directive
2004/108/EC (EMVG)
• Antenna earthing IEC 60728
• Application equipotential bonding and earthing in
buildings with information technology equipment ‒
EN 50310
• Electrical installations residential buildings DIN
18015-1
• Foundation earth electrodes‒ DIN 18014
In Germany, the foundation earth electrode new
buildings must meet the requirements DIN 18014
and the technical connection conditions (TAB) the
power supply generator (VNB).1."
The earthing system thus represents safety-relevant
part, and installation only permitted performed by
an electrical lightning protection specialist.
2. addi-
tion, the responsible specialist must stated the
prescribed documentation. Buildings with systems and data
cabling have high requirements for electromagnetic
compatibility measures (EMC).4.1 IEC 60364-5-54: "For protection
and function purposes, earthing systems may used
together separately, according the requirements
of the electrical system. It
ensures operation and protects people against haz-
ardous currents.2 Normative requirements
The earthing system creates the electrical connection
to the surrounding earth.
Only electrical lightning protection specialists may
install, check and accept the earthing system. Con-
struction companies must allow the supervision the
installation and acceptance the earthing system by
electrical and lightning protection specialists.
The following infringements the rules technology
are specified 319 "Causing danger during con-
struction work" the German Criminal Code:
