NOTES 1 As a consequence of a reform process within the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the CCITT ceased to exist as of 28 Februar

5、y 1993. In its place, the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) was created as of 1 March 1993. Similarly, in this reform process, the CCIR and the IFRB have been replaced by the Radiocommunication Sector. In order not to delay publication of this Recommendation, no change has been ma

10、inki, I993) 1 Introduction The increasing use of complex electronic telecommunications equipment, such as ISDN terminals, at subscribers buildings entails special care for protecting against electromagnetic disturbances. Such disturbances include exposure of the serving telecommunications cable to l

11、ightning and faults on the external power system, as well as protection against electrostatic discharges and radiated electromagnetic interference. Properly configured equipotential bonding within the building helps to achieve the necessary protection, while also helping to assure the safety of thos

12、e using terminal equipment . Recommendation K.27, “Bonding configurations and earthing inside a telecommunication building” is not generally applicable to installations within a subscribers building, wherein several utilities may share a bonding configuration with little overall control by the telec

13、ommunications service-provider. Therefore, this Recommendation is intended for subscribers buildings, including residential and commercial installations. This Recommendation does not fully cover power production and distribution plants. 2 Scope This Recommendation: - is a guide to bonding and earthi

14、ng of telecommunication equipment in residential and commercial subscribers premises; - is intended to comply with IEC i or national standardizing bodies on a.c. power installations; - is intended for use with new installations as well as for expansion and replacement of existing installations; - is

15、 intended to encourage planning for electromagnetic compatibility, which should include bonding and earthing arrangements that accommodate installation tests and diagnostics; - does not necessarily provide protection for the installation in the case of a direct lightning stroke to the building; - is

16、 not intended to replace national regulations on bonding configurations and earthing. For required values of immunity to surge currents and electrostatic discharges, see Recommendation K.2 1, “Resistability of subscribers terminals to overvoltages and overcurrents” and Recommendation K.22, “Overvolt

17、age resistability of equipment connected to an ISDN T/S bus”. Permissible levels of electromagnetic emissions are covered by CISPR 2, or by national regulations. Concerning the need for overvoltage protectors, see Recommendation K.ll, “Principles of protection against overvoltages and overcurrents”,

18、 and national regulations. 3 Definit ions In this Recommendation, definitions with respect to earthing already introduced by the IEC 3 are used to maintain conformity. Definitions relating to bonding configurations and earthing in Recommendation K.27 also apply. Recommendation K.31 (03/93) 1 The sig

19、nal earth conductor (SE) is used for the purpose of allowing the intended signalling function of telecommunication equipment to be fulfilled. The signalling function may include signalling with earth return. The function of a protective earth conductor (PE) and of a SE conductor may be comprised sim

20、ultaneously by one and the same conductor, if it is designed to the rules imposed on it by safety requirements. 4 Objectives for bonding configurations and earthing The purpose of bonding configurations and earthing of telecommunications systems at a subscribers premises is to: 1) promote safety by

21、reducing potentials between telecommunications equipment units and earthed systems; 2) mitigate damage caused by lightning and other surges on the mains and telecommunications cables; 3) facilitate rapid de-energization of main lines that accidentally contact telecommunications equipment or cable, t

22、hereby reducing hazard and damage; 4) provide paths to divert to earth the surge currents entering the premises on cable screens; 5) provide a low-resistance circuit to earth for systems that use signalling with earth return. 5 a.c. power distribution The a.c. power installation in a subscribers bui

23、lding is according to one of the types described in IEC 4. EMC performance of telecommunication equipment is eased if the a.c. power installation inside a subscribers building is of type TN-S as described by the EC i. This power configuration requires that there be no PEN conductor within the buildi

24、ng. If power is served to the subscribers building by an IT or T distribution network, the PE conductor inside the building is connected to the main earthing terminal, but the neutral conductor is not. If an IT or T distribution network is equipped with a separation transformer dedicated to that bui

25、lding (e.g. to mitigate interference), or equivalent, it would allow the procedures of a TN-S installation to be followed. It is recognized that installations within a building with a TN-C section are in widespread use; however, bonding configurations and earthing for such an installation are a subj

26、ect for further study. If a mains installation with a PEN conductor is used, attention is drawn to the possibility of overheating SE conductors or associated elements (e.g. contacts in a wall outlet); unwanted noise coupling to the telecom installation may also occur. Although the measures to be use

27、d with TN-C and TN-CS installations are still under study several Administrations have reported acceptable results using the mitigation measures described in Appendix I. 6 Principies for equipotential bonding Equipment and persons in a building are exposed to externally produced energy because condu

28、ctive services such as telecommunications lines, power lines, antenna leads, waveguides, earthing conductors, and metallic pipes penetrate the shell of the building. The penetration of conducted energy is mitigated by interconnecting all of these conductors at their entry points with low-impedance b

29、onding conductors or voltage-limiting devices referred to the main earthing terminal. Low impedance may be achieved by keeping the length of bonding conductors short. Similarly, the leads of voltage-limiting devices should be short. Emphasis is on equipotential bonding of the telecommunications syst

30、em to the PE of the power system. The resistance of the earthing network is of importance for systems that use signalling with earth return. In this case, an SE is used for connection to the earthing network. A common bonding network may provide the SE function. 2 Recommendation K.31 (03/93) It is d

31、esirable that the ingress for all conductors entering the premises (including the earthing conductor) be located close together. In particular, the a.c. power entrance facilities, telecommunication cable entrance facilities and the earthing conductor entry point shall be close together. Electromagne

32、tic coupling between unshielded power cables and telecommunication cables may have to be considered. The building should be provided with a main earthing terminal. located as close as possible to the a.c. power and telecommunication cable entrance facilities. The main earthing terminal may be a desi

33、gnated connection provided for the purpose, or other connections may be used, e.g. metallic waterpipe or conductor to the earthing system. In order to minimize surge currents and voltages in the building, the shields of all cables entering the building shall be bonded to the main earthing terminal,

34、preferably directly or by means of monitoring current interrupters. Arresters or capacitors may be used for this connection, if required by corrosion considerations. If protectors are installed on the telecommunications lines, they should be located as close as practicable to the location at which t

35、he lines enter the premises. By also locating the protectors near the entrance of the power mains, the length of the earthing conductor from the protector to the main earthing terminal is minimized. The low impedance of a short earthing conductor helps reduce surge voltage differences between the te

36、lecommunications lines and the protective conductor of the power system. It is recognized that, in some countries, the earthing terminal of the telecommunications line protectors is connected only to a separate earth electrode. It is recommended that over a transition period the separate earth elect

37、rodes should be interconnected. In cases where earthing of a protector or cable screen of a cable entering the building is required, an accessible earthing network at the premises should be available for this purpose. Additional surge protectors are sometimes installed at the location of the telecom

38、munications terminal equipment in order to limit surges caused by coupling within the building. The common terminal of these protectors should be connected to the protective conductor near the protected equipment. (See 1.4.YK.11 regarding use of secondary protectors.) Figure 1 provides an example of

39、 a bonding configuration and earthing inside a subscribers building. Figure 2 provides an example for an ISDN installation. For a given installation, the principles illustrated by these examples may be simplified or made more complex depending on the nature of the telecommunications terminal and its

40、 connections. 7 Large installations Large installations of telecommunications equipment may require special care to avoid damage or upset from electromagnetic sources. Such installations should make use of the bonding configurations and earthing techniques of Recommendation K.27. Some installations

41、at subscribers premises may consist of several buildings, with the telecommunications cable from the public network entering the first building then continuing to the other buildings. In that case, with the following exception, the telecommunications equipment of each building should be earthed and

42、protected as in the previous case for an individual building. In the case where the inter-building cabling is not exposed to contact from a high voltage power line, and the distance between buildings is less than 50 m, and the cable between the buildings has a metallic screen connected to the earthi

43、ng terminal of each building, protection is placed in the first building and no protector is needed at the second building. The restriction to 50 m is intended to provide a low probability of direct lightning stroke to the cable between the two buildings. This case is illustrated In Figure 3. Note t

44、hat if the buildings of Figure 3 are not interconnected by the neutral or PE conductor of the a.c. power system, the addition of a conductor that connects the earthing networks of the buildings reduces the current in the metallic screen of the telecommunication cable.
