This is for the design of a new 100KW, 277-480V engine-generator installation. The E/G will be mounted on a reinforced concrete pad. The pad will contain rebar grounding, and a buried ground ring with a ground rod at each corner. A chain-link fence will encircle the pad. There is nothing electrical mounted on, or near the fence. As far as I can see, the fence cannot become energized from the E/G equipment.
Do you recommend connecting the fence to the grounding electrode system for the generator/pad?
If yes, what is your recommended procedure? Should each post have a bolted connection to the grounding system?
Thanks for your input.
