6.5.1 Earth Ground Electrode System Resistance Testing

Not applicable to this project. A four ohm or less earth ground resistance reading is the

target earth ground resistance for FDOT communications sites. The Vendor shall

provide before and after earth ground resistance testing of the site grounding system.

Before bonding the generator to the existing communications site grounding electrode

system, earth ground testing shall be required while isolated/disconnected from the

electric utility grounding electrode.

6.5.2 Isolating the Utility Grounded Service from the Communications Site Grounded

System

Not applicable to this site. The neutral (utility earth grounded system) must be

temporarily disconnected in order to measure the earth ground electrode resistance. The

site power is to be shut off to conduct the test. This can be done by shutting off all load

circuit breakers to all communications site equipment. These circuit breakers shall be

located at the communications site load distribution panel within the shelter. Once all

loads have been removed, the main disconnect switch shall be opened to ensure that

the test is conducted in a de-energized state. Once the main disconnect is opened, the



Page 50 of 56

Vendor will disconnect the neutral conductor at the AC main disconnect within the

communications shelter. The line side neutral conductor coming from the electric utility

is to be disconnected, taped and safely isolated during the test.

The Vendor shall check for current on the grounding electrode conductor before

disconnecting. Never disconnect the ground of a live circuit. Disconnecting the ground

of a live circuit could cause death or severe injury. The disconnection must be done by

a licensed and qualified electrician and according to OSHA requirements.

6.5.3 Three Point/Fall of Potential Earth Ground Testing Procedure

Not applicable to this site. The Three-Point/Fall-of-Potential test is the most widely

accepted and recommended test method. This procedure is documented in ANSI/IEEE

STD 81. This standard should be consulted for more details.

Required test equipment and supplies:

Three-Point/Fall-of-Potential Ground Resistance Tester (with supplied test leads, test clips, and probes)

Small sledgehammer

Tape measure

Safety glasses

Gloves

The Vendor shall perform a three point earth ground test for measuring the resistance of

the site’s earth ground electrode system to validate the earth ground resistance. This

test is also known as the 62 percent Fall of Potential Method. The earth ground test

method evaluates the resistance of the site ground resistance by circulating a test

current through the soil, test leads (ground stakes), grounding electrode under test and

test instrument. This method uses two ground stakes driven into the surrounding soil at

the site a specified distance from the electrode under test. At one ground stake,

measure the voltage drop across the soil between the electrode under test and the

closest ground stake driven 62 percent of the distance to the second driven ground

stake. The grounding conductor leads of the tester are connected to the electrode under

test (frame of the generator) and the two-ground stakes. Once these connections have

been completed, the earth ground resistance measurement is made by pressing a

switch on the test instrument. This causes a current to circulate through the ground

loop created between the test instrument, furthest ground stake and electrode under

test. The instrument will then provide an earth-ground resistance based on the voltage

drop read through the soil between the driven stakes.



Page 51 of 56

Figure 6.5.3-1 provides the recommended distances for spacing the Y and Z ground

stakes to conduct the 62 percent Fall of Potential Test. The ground stakes are to be

spaced based on the 10 foot depth of the electrode under test.

For a multi-bonded/multi-grounding electrode system, the distance of the reference Z

probe shall be between 5 and 10 times the diagonal distance of the grounding electrode

system (i.e. the diagonal distance of the fenced area). For three-point testing distance

measurements, the planar center of a multi-bonded/multi-grounded electrode system is

the extreme edge of the system in the direction of where the test probes are inserted. In

Figure 6.5.3-1, one of three rods connected to the tower ground ring has been selected

as the electrode under test, since this ground rod is the outermost rod of the earth

grounding electrode system for the illustrated communications site. Since the diagonal

distance for the communications site is 47 feet, the Z probe ground stake is calculated at

five times the diagonal site distance or 235 feet. This is the point at which the Z probe

stake is spaced away from the X probe (electrode under test). The Y probe is then

staked 62 percent the Z probe distance or 146 feet from the X probe.

When conducting the earth ground fall of potential test, the Vendor shall ensure that the

ground stakes are run directly away from the grounding electrode system being tested.

In Figure 6.5.3-1, the X probe to be tested has been selected as one of the ground rods

connected to the tower ground ring. The ground stakes shall not run in parallel to any

overhead or underground power lines whose magnetic field can adversely affect the test

instrument readings. If power lines are present, try placing the test ground stakes at 90

degree angles to power lines in the surrounding test area. The earth ground resistance

testing shall be performed by a calibrated tester. The earth ground tester calibration

date shall be current (within 12 months of the test date).

6.5.4 Site Grounding Electrode System Continuity Testing

Not applicable to this site. Upon completion of the three-point earth ground testing,

continuity of all site ground bonding shall be verified to ensure there is no differential

resistance between any two metallic points within the site. A well bonded electrical

grounding system ensures that there is close to zero ohms of resistance between any

two points. The three-point tester can be configured to read continuity (resistance

between two points) by connecting the X and Y terminal on the instrument. Figure 6.5.3-

1 shows a three point earth ground resistance tester configured in both three-point and

two-point configuration.

Configure the instrument for two-point continuity testing in accordance with the

equipment’s operating instructions and measure various points throughout the

communications site to ensure that all grounded systems are at the same earth ground

potential. The X-Y jumpered terminal leads are then connected to one of the ground

points to be tested for continuity. The Z terminal lead is connected to the second ground

point to be tested. For a well bonded electrical grounding system, the resistance value

should be measured as close to zero ohms as practical. Readings of 0.1 ohms or

greater should be investigated.

Continuity at communications sites should be verified between all of the following using

a three-point earth ground tester, configured for a 2-point test:

Each fence corner point to the communications tower ground ring

Communications tower ground ring to the shelter site ground ring

Communications tower ground ring to ice bridge cable support

Ice bridge cable support to shelter ground ring

All metal frames at site to shelter ground and communications tower ground ring

Any metal tanks or other metal structures to shelter and tower ground ring

All measurements must be witnessed by the FDOT Project Manager or his/her

appointed designee. Once the communications site’s earth ground and continuity

measurements have been performed, the Vendor shall proceed to install the engine

generator earth ground electrode system and bond it to the site’s existing grounding

electrode system.

After the generator earth ground electrode system is bonded to the communications

site’s earth grounding electrode system, the Vendor shall make an earth ground

measurement to determine the new earth ground resistance for the site with the engine

generator driven earth grounds in parallel with the communications site’s earth ground

electrode system. This earth ground resistance measurement shall be taken with the

utility neutral temporarily disconnected at the main disconnect panel to isolate the site's

readings from any potential influence from the utility earth ground electrode system.

If the new earth ground resistance readings for the site are found to be higher than four

ohms with all existing and new electrodes connected, the Vendor shall review the

readings with the FDOT Project Manager or his/her designee to identify what additional

ground rod augmentation is necessary to improve the ground resistance readings to four

ohms or less.

6.6 Site Inspection

Upon inspection, the site shall be free of debris and any excavations shall be backfilled

and restored. Any unique site requirements will be delineated in the site specific

Appendix.

6.7 Performance Testing

Following the completion of all acceptance inspections and testing, the installed

generator systems shall be subjected to a minimum 20-day performance period.



Page 54 of 56

A 20 consecutive calendar day period of successful operation shall constitute a

successful performance period.

For the purpose of the successful performance period, failure of operation is defined as

the failure of a major component of the generator system (emergency generator, ATS,

etc.). Degradation of performance is not a failure if function and proper operation is

maintained.

The performance verification shall be accomplished and witnessed by the FDOT Project

Manager or designated personnel. Upon acceptance test criteria by the FDOT Project

Manager, the 20 day performance period shall begin. This requirement shall be

accomplished during a period of time no later than 45 consecutive calendar days after

equipment installation, inspection and testing.

The Vendor shall configure the generator to run for 30 minutes under load, every day of
