Special attention should be given to grounding location and means for minimizing circulating ground currents, as well as ground-fault sensing. Electrical power systems require two types of grounding, namely, system grounding and equipment grounding; each has its own functions [55]. The IEEE Green Book, IEEE Recommended Practice for Grounding of Industrial and Commercial Power Systems, ANSI/IEEE C114.1, Std.142, is the authoritative reference on grounding techniques [56].
