Here are some symbols on P&ID : So, those are some of the symbols that we will often see when reading piping & instrument diagrams. May be useful.

Grounding System

Grounding

Have we known what a grounding or grounding system is?

Grounding or grounding system is a safety system in the electricity distribution network to eliminate potential differences by draining the residual current from leakage voltage or excess current to earth. If this grounding system does not exist in an electrical network, it will pose a hazard to the safety of humans and equipment and the electrical service system itself.


This grounding system connects electrical equipment and objects that have the potential to conduct electricity with the earth. This grounding system is an essential system of an electrical network system itself because with this grounding system, electricity can be distributed properly.

Grounding System Purpose

This grounding system has the following objectives:

- Connect device with earth
- Conveys lightning or other electrical charges to the earth
- Prevent potential differences from occurring safely
- Distributes fault current to ground
- Prevents the occurrence of danger when in contact with the human body

The maximum resistance of this grounding system when measured is a maximum of 5 ohms, the smaller the resistance the better. This resistance is influenced by the type of soil itself, including water content, minerals/salt, acidity and soil texture.

In the wiring diagram of this grounding system it is symbolized as follows,


Because this grounding system will be connected to the ground, then this grounding system requires electrodes that are installed or usually plugged into the ground. The length of these electrodes varies between 2.5 mtr - 10 mtr or more if the target resistance value has not been reached. This electrode will be connected with a cable or copper plate to the grounding of the building or the lightning protection system. These electrodes are usually in the form of sticks or rods with a circular cross-section.

There are several ways to connect the electrodes to the cable or the grounding plate of the building, including the cadwell and clamp methods.


The Cadwell method is often used because the resulting connection is stronger and more resistant to corrosion or rust, although it costs more and is more difficult to install. The way this method works in general is to melt or melt the electrodes together with the grounding wire from the building and then harden together, this method requires powdered powder to carry out the molding process.

As for the connection using clamps, it is easier to install and cheaper, but this method is more prone to corrosion or rust and the connection is easy to loose.
How to find out the resistance value for this grounding system by measuring it using a ground tester. The method is as follows,


Thus a brief discussion of the grounding system or grounding, may be useful.

Text And Mtext In Autocad

The Difference Between "Text" And "Mtext" In Autocad And How To Convert It In operating AutoCAD we often encounter or use writing with the aim of providing information, showing something, etc. so that our drawings are easier to understand. To write in AutoCAD, we know that there are two options, the first is "TEXT" and the second is "MTEXT". So what are the differences between the two? TEXT For "text" itself we can call it single text or single writing. So if we use "text" we can only write one sentence in one piece of text. The disadvantage of this "text" is that it doesn't have any editing menu, we can't adjust or adjust our needs in this paper, instead we must first enter the properties menu. This means that from this "text" we can only edit the written content. To use this "text" we can use the command type "DT" then press enter. MTEXT As for "mtext" itself is an ab

Genset Heating Procedure

Genset Heating Standard Procedure Genset is one of the equipment that functions to convert mechanical energy or rotation of the rotor into electrical energy. The generator has two main parts, namely the motor generator and the generator engine (usually a diesel engine), both of which are connected by a shaft. The generator itself has two main parts, namely the rotor and stator. The stator is the stationary part, while the rotor is the rotating part. This generator works when the genset control panel receives input if the power source from PLN dies, then the PLC or ATS (automatic transfer switch) will give an order to the genset control panel to turn on the generator, this is done automatically. What if the generator has to be turned on manually, for example when heating the generator? Genset as one of the supporting utility facilities of a building must of course be maintained regularly, one of which is heating the generator as one of the genset maintenance procedures. To warm up the g
