11 Important Facts Humans: About 2 Volts of Touch Voltage Will Result in Perception of Electrtic Shock. Much Lower for Kids Chicken: About 0.9 Volts of Voltage Will Make Chickens Stay Away Importance??? Claims of Stray Voltage Effects on Cows and Fish Have een Very Serious and Fiercely Litigated Continuous Voltages of 30 to 60 Volts Have Resulted in Fatalities of Humans and Animals 11

13 Safety Assessment 3-D D Graph of Touch Voltages In a Substation 13
14 The IEEE Std 80 Addresses Safety in Utility Substation. In this talk, we will not discuss safety during HV faults. It Is important to mention that because the grounding system is continuous, a high voltage elevation of the substation ground will propagate through the neutral and reach residences, pools, offices, etc. 14

34 Conclusions Elevated voltages in neutrals and grounds is reality. Proper design practices can mitigate these voltages. Physically based modeling provides the basis to study simultaneously grounding, neutral voltages and safety. Disadvantage: More Complex Models. Observation: Electric power installations can be designed to be safe at low cost. Retrofitting is relatively expensive. However, there is a substantial percentage of the industry that does not pay attention to this issue at the design phase. 34
