Hi guys, I have to go out and quote on a diesel storage tank earthing. Now I assume it will be for lightning which means a risk assessment must be done and soil resistivity must be done to calculate the appropriate earthing needed. Now firstly, I’m not a master electrician, just an installation electrician. I’m 100% sure this would fall under a master electrician’s description correct? Would you do this earthing installation if the installation comes with drawings and specs provided by the electrical engineer even if you are not a master electrician? And what if the specs tells you the Earth conductor size they want to be used etc without any risk assessment done to show that X amount of Earth rods must be installed at X meter deep or a Earth ring must be installed.
