Calculation — Grounding Cable Size

🔁 Repost to help someone avoid a melted ground wire.

Here’s the practical approach used worldwide (based on IEC & NEC standards). The cable must handle the full fault current long enough for the protective device to clear the fault, without its insulation melting. grounding cable size calculation

Choosing the right grounding conductor size isn’t guesswork—it’s critical for safety and code compliance. Undersize it, and a fault could vaporize the cable before the breaker trips. Oversize it, and you waste money. 🔁 Repost to help someone avoid a melted ground wire
