I am working at a new plant with a Delta high resistance ground system. I am looking for general grounding guidelines for this system.

SUMMARY
The IEEE Green Book, specifically IEEE 142, provides essential grounding guidelines for high resistance ground systems, such as those used in Delta configurations. While it offers clear explanations of grounding principles, practitioners may find "The American Electrician's Handbook" to be a more practical and cost-effective resource, featuring useful schematics and transformer grounding methods. The Green Book is recommended for plant engineers to enhance their understanding of grounding, which is often overlooked in electrical engineering curricula.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of grounding systems, specifically high resistance grounding.
- Familiarity with the National Electrical Code (NEC).
- Knowledge of transformer grounding methods.
- Basic principles of electrical engineering and circuit design.
- Research "The American Electrician's Handbook" for practical grounding techniques.
- Study the National Electrical Code (NEC) for compliance and safety standards.
- Explore IEEE 142, the Green Book, for in-depth grounding principles.
- Investigate various transformer grounding methods and their applications.
Electrical engineers, plant engineers, and students seeking to enhance their knowledge of grounding practices and improve their understanding of electrical systems.
