One of the most emphasized sections of SS 551 is bonding. This involves connecting all exposed conductive parts (metal pipes, structural steel) to the earthing system to ensure there is no voltage difference between them, which could cause a shock if touched simultaneously. 4. Key Design Considerations
, it is tailored to meet local regulatory and technical requirements in Singapore. The primary objective of the code is to ensure the safety of human life, animals, and property by limiting electrical potential during fault conditions. Scope and Exclusions ss 551 code of practice for earthing
: Increased emphasis on keeping clear records and performing periodic inspections to maintain system integrity. Local Utility Alignment One of the most emphasized sections of SS 551 is bonding
: A dedicated section on earthing conductors to ensure "safe working" conditions. Documentation & Testing ss 551 code of practice for earthing
