26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. Safety of Personnel: By safely channeling fault currents into the ground, proper grounding helps to reduce the risk of electric shock to personnel. This helps to reduce the potential difference that exists between conductive parts and the earth. IN ELECTRICAL STATIONS INCLUDING TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SUBSTAT GR THAN 8 FT FROM THE FENCE. THE FENCE SHALL BE GROUNDED SEPARATELY FROM THE GRID UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED ON THE A PROPRIATE PROJECT DRAWING.

DISTRIBUTION BOX

Each DISTRIBUTION BOX and controller must be grounded. On the US market, a 5.26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used.
