    Abstract

    Performing High Voltage (HV) maintenance with a multicraft work force creates a special set of safety circumstances. The safety of people including workers will be discussed in this paper. In Addition, this paper will present an effective approach to design an earthing system. This approach explains the theoretical background necessary to perform the calculation of the required safety voltages. Finally, this paper provides a verification of the proposed approach via simulation with Current Distribution, Electromagnetic Fields, Grounding and Soil Structure Analysis CDEGS software.
