I came across them on a David Attenborogh documentary before then

I first came across them in 1988 in a telco lab environment.
Noticed this on the architects notes can someone elaborate for me? thanks
the contractor should note the need for dual earth terminal blocks to be provided within DBs supplying computer power
People have assumed (as I did at first) that this is referring to high integrity (HI) earthing.
Just dawned on me, it could also mean they want clean and dirty earth bars, and possibly (HI) earthing.
I would seek clarification, because getting this wrong could be very expensive.
Yes indeed double check that they do not require clean earth, but i would have said, architect would/should have stated that they require clean earth (not a small detail) on circuit(s), but then again he/she could of over looked.
In which case dont bother replying to the thread - your comments are neither useful or wanted
After a comment like that your opinions are reduced like you to NOTHING!
NBP is one of the most skilled engineers on this board. one who’s advise I’d take any time over yours.
and i cant fathom why some people need to belittle some members for asking a question, this really shouldnt be the case on a open forum otherwise whats the point, yes some questions are very basic in their nature but surely expanding on them would be a better soloution even to the more experienced and intelligent of us?I cannot fathom the depth of complaints that are forthcoming with regard to the reluctance to undertake continuous professional development It beggars belief!

i will also add that i have very little knowledge of the topic in question but ill make sure i dont ask for a fuller explanation .......
I wasn`t questioning your integrity..or your knowledge....rather the rude way you chose to post...thats all.....I will look forward to listening/learning from you (and others on here) in future.What I cannot understand is why a so called competent and professional electrician cannot fathom something that came into the regs over 20 years ago.
The ONLY thing that COULD be of question is the clarification between hi integrity & clean earthing.
However, a competent professional electrician should be able to fathom this themselves, as it is quite straight forward stuff really.
I really worry these days about the competence of some "so called" electricians who are working in the real world and seem to have a very poor grasp of what are basic and fundamental principles and rules of the trade when they propose themselves to be professionals!
A professional has to undergo continuous professional development to retain their professional status, that means investment in themselves in training and in reference materials such as the relevant reference material such as standards.
I cannot fathom the depth of complaints that are forthcoming with regard to the reluctance to undertake continuous professional development, and, all that this entails, whilst shouting that electricians are professionals.
It beggars belief!
