CARA MEMASANG GROUNDING RUMAH SESUAI PUIL

Summary

This video provides a step-by-step guide on how to install grounding for home electrical systems, following the 2011 PUIL standard (updated in 2016). It covers the materials needed, including copper grounding rods, grounding cables, and connectors. The process starts with selecting the proper soil for grounding, digging the necessary hole, and installing the rod. It also details how to connect the grounding system to the MCB box and outlet terminals, ensuring safety and proper grounding measurement. The video aims to simplify grounding installation and encourage learning and sharing among viewers.

Takeaways

• 😀 The grounding system installation must comply with PUIL 2011 Edition 2016 standards for safety and efficiency.
• 😀 Use a copper grounding rod with a diameter between ¾ inch and 2 inches and a minimum length of 1.5 meters.
• 😀 Grounding cable should be copper, with a recommended size of 6 mm (4 mm can also be used).
• 😀 Ensure the distance between the KWH meter and the grounding rod is at least 180 cm for safety.
• 😀 The first step in installation is to dig a hole approximately 50 cm deep to place the grounding rod.
• 😀 After inserting the grounding rod into the hole, pour water to ensure good contact between the rod and the soil.
• 😀 Secure the grounding rod by gently pressing it further into the ground after watering.
• 😀 Use a connector to attach the grounding cable to the grounding rod, ensuring a firm connection.
• 😀 Grounding resistance should be under 5 Ohms for effective operation, and an Earth Tester is ideal for measuring this.
• 😀 The grounding cable should be connected to the bottom terminal of the MCB box and routed to the electrical sockets.
• 😀 For safety, ensure that the grounding wire is connected properly at both the MCB panel and the electrical outlets.

Q & A

What is the primary reference for the grounding installation in this script?

The primary reference for the grounding installation is the PUIL 2011 edition 2016.

What are the materials required for grounding installation according to the script?

The materials required include a grounding electrode rod (copper or iron), grounding wire (copper, 6mm), and connectors to connect the wire to the grounding rod.

What is the recommended diameter and length of the grounding electrode rod?

The recommended diameter of the grounding rod is between 3/4 to 2 inches, and the minimum length should be 1.5 meters, with a longer length being preferable.

What size of grounding wire is recommended for connecting the electrode rod to the MCB box?

The recommended size for the grounding wire is 6mm, although 4mm is also considered sufficient depending on the budget.

What type of soil is preferred for grounding installation?

The preferred soil for grounding installation is moist or damp soil, as it enhances the grounding efficiency.

What is the minimum distance recommended between the KWH meter and the grounding electrode rod?

The minimum recommended distance is 180 cm between the KWH meter and the grounding electrode rod.

How deep should the grounding rod be installed into the ground?

The grounding rod should be installed to a depth of at least 50 cm into the ground.

Can a multimeter be used instead of an Earth tester for grounding measurement?

Yes, a multimeter can be used as an alternative to an Earth tester for measuring grounding resistance, though Earth testers are more accurate.

What is the target resistance for a grounding system, and what is considered ideal?

The target resistance for the grounding system should be below 5 Ohms, with 1-2 Ohms being ideal.

Where should the grounding wire be connected in the MCB box?

The grounding wire should be connected to the terminal block at the bottom of the MCB box to facilitate maintenance.
