Of low potential circuits under the
following regulations shall be al

Of current over the ground wires.
Second: Transformer sccondaries
Of distributing systems may be
grounded. and whom grounded. the
following rules shall be complied
with;
1a1 Tho ground wire shall be
kept outside OF the buiidings, but
may be directly attached 20 the
building OF pole. The wire shall be
carried In as nearly straight iine
as possible. and kinks. coils and
sharp bends shall be avoided. Pro-
vlded. no secondary ground wire
shall be placed on corner pole.
OBJ The grounding shall be made
at the neutral point or wire whom
ever a neutral point or wire Is ae-
cesaible.
fc) Where no neutral point or
wire IL accessible. one side OF the
secondary circuit may be grounded.
provided the maximum difference OF
potential between the grounded point
and any other point In the circuit
does not exceed two hundred fifty
t2501 volts.
al The grounded connection
shan. when practicable, be ut the
| transformer. The Superintendent of
| public Utilities may require any
further grounding which he may
deem necessary.
fe) The ground wire in direct
current, three (3) wire systems,
shall not at central stations be
sma Ter than the neutral wire. and
not smaller than No. y. a. :. gauge
elsewhere.
on The ground wire In alter
current systems shall never be less
than No. u. a 8. gauge.
