main power distribution earth and proprietary grounding
Posted: Mon Mar 28, 2011 6:29 am
hi,
i am from macedonia. at the moment i am visiting some friend who can help me with a design of electricity distribution for my future studio. i have to admit that i read through posts here, and what i firstly understood is that i have to connect my proprietary digged ground rode to the electrical leg of audio equipment. therefore, that MY ground is NOT to be interconnected with incoming main distribution ground. in another words, all my studio logic outlets will connect to the neutral from incoming power, to the phase (phase1) from incoming power AND to the my ground (and not to the incoming ground)...
ok fine, but then i read further and one poster mentioned that proprietary ground HAS to be connected to the incoming main distribution ground and bridged with neutral (also from incoming main distribution)...
thats where i lost it altogether...
what is already done:
a) a rode diged inside the soil (far right in my picture)
b) incoming main distribution three phase tick cable (top left) is in the place
c) main fuse break cabinet (black and grey grid) is placed on the wall
d) copper cable from the rode is brought to the main fuse break cabinet
e) all studio logic power outlets (audio processors, console, screens, computers, speakers, etc...) are marked and designated to phase 1
my questions are:
1)
what i have to do next... connect all studio logic outlets to the phase and neutral from incoming power distribution and to the incoming main power ground AND my proprietary ground OR only to my proprietary ground?
2)
do i need to have separate fuse break cabinet for HVAC and lighting and apartment?
THX,
pic attached,
cheers and many thx,
