provided it need not exceed 500 volts. Where the supply is derived from a poly phase AC.
system, the neutral pole of which is connected to earth either directly or through added

phase conductor and the neutral.
6.4.2 The insulation resistance shall also be measured between all the conductors connected to one
pole, or phase conductor of the supply, and all the conductors connected to the neutral, or to
the other pole, or phase conductors of the supply with all the lamps in position and switches

6.4.3 The insulation resistance in mega ohms measured as above shall not be less than 12.5 mega
ohms.

switch is fitted in a conductor which is labeled, or marked for connection to one of the phase
conductors of the supply.
6.5.3 The installation shall be. connected to the supply for testing. The terminals of all switches
shall be tested by a test lamp, one lead of which is connected to the earth. Glowing of test

6.7.1 Two auxiliary earth electrode, besides the test electrode, shall be placed at suitable distance
from the test electrode (see figure). A measured current is passed between the electrode 'A'
to be tested and an auxiliary current electrode 'C', and the potential difference between the electrode 'A' and auxiliary potential 'B' is measured. The resistance of the test electrode 'A' is
then given by
V R - Resistance of the test electrode in ohms
R= --------------, Where, V - Reading of the voltmeter in volts
I I - Reading of the ammeter in amps.
6.7.2 Stray currents flowing in the soil may produce serious errors in the measurement of earth
resistance. To eliminate this, hand driven generator shall be used.
If the frequency of the supply of hand driven generator coincides with the frequency of stray
current, there will be wandering of instrument pointer. An increase or decrease of generator
speed will cause this to disappear.
110
6.7.3 At the time of test, the test electrode shall be separated from the earthing system.
6.7.4 The auxiliary electrodes shall be of 13 mm diameter mild steel rod driven upto 1 m into the
ground.
6.7.5 All the three electrodes shall be so placed that they are independent of the resistance area of
each other. If the test electrode is in the form of a rod, pipe or plate, the auxiliary current
electrode 'C' shall be placed at least 30 m away from it, and the auxiliary potential electrode
'B' shall be placed midway between them.
6.7.6 Unless three consecutive readings of test electrode resistance agree, the test shall be repeated
by increasing the distance between electrodes A and C upto 50 m, and each time placing the
electrode B midway between them.
6.8. TEST CERTIFICATE:
On completion of an electrical installation, a certificate shall be furnished by the contractor,
countersigned by the certified supervisor under whose direct supervision the installation was
carried out. This certificate shall be in the prescribed form as given in Appendix in addition
to the test certificate required by the local Electric Supply Authorities.

TERMINOLOGY
This appendix indicates some of the commonly used and important terms, relevant for the Internal
EI works.
1. Exposed conductive part –

live, but which may become the earth potential.
2. Direct contact –
Contact of persons or livestock with live parts which may result in electrical shock.
3. Indirect Contact –
Contact of persons or livestock with exposed conductive parts made live by a fault and
which may result in electric shock.
4. Live Part –
A conductor or conductive part intended to be energised in normal use, including a neutral
conductor but, by convention, not a PEN conductor.
5. Touch Voltage –
The potential difference between a grounded metallic structure and.a point on the earth
surface separated by a distance equal to the normal maximum horizontal reach of
approximately 1 meter.
6. Danger –
Danger to health or danger to life or limb from shock, bum or injury from mechanical
movement to persons (and livestock where present), or from fire attendant upon the use of
electrical energy.
7. Earth –
The conductive mass of the earth, whose electric potential at any point is conventionally
taken as zero.
8. Earth electrode –
A conductor or group of conductors in intimate contact with and providing an electrical
connection to earth.
9. Earth fault loop impedance-
The impedance of the earth fault current loop (phase to earth loop), starting and ending at
the point of earth fault.
183
10. Earth leakage current –
A current which flows to earth, or to extraneous conductive parts, in a circuit which is
electrically sound.
11. Earth conductor –
A protective conductor connecting the main earth terminal to an earth electrode
12. Residual current –
The algebraic sum of the instantaneous values of current flowing through all the live
conductors of a circuit at a point of the electrical installation.
13. Residual current device (RCD) –
A mechanical switching device, intended to cause the opening of the contacts ,when the
residual current attains a given value under the specified conditions.
14. Switchboard-
An assembly of switchgear with or without instruments, but the term does not apply to a
group of local switches in a final circuit.
15. Switchgear-
