Introduction This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 1542-2007, IEEE Guide for Installation, Maintenance, and Operation of Irrigation Equipment Located Near or Under
7、 Power Lines. The guide is intended for designers, installers, and operators of the irrigation equipment, as well as electric power utilities whose lines are located near or above the irrigation systems. General information is provided on installation, maintenance, and operation of irrigation equipm
8、ent as it relates to safety due to the presence of electric power lines. The following parameters are considered: a) Distance to energized conductors during installation b) Proper grounding to minimize nuisance shocks c) Distance between irrigation nozzle and power line conductors during operation o
9、f the irrigation system The recommended minimum conductor-to-nozzle distance is based on the maximum allowable body leakage current of 5 mA rms and field tests conducted by the Nebraska Public Power District and the USDA Agricultural Research Service, University of Nebraska. Because of the great var
10、iety of conditions, practices, electrical system designs, types of irrigation systems, water conductivity, and ground resistance values, this guide covers these variables only in general terms. However, specific recommendations are made for the type of irrigation system and power line parameters tha

Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document (i.e., they must be understood and use
43、d, so each referenced document is cited in text and its relationship to this document is explained). For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments or corrigenda) applies. Accredited Standards Comm

Definitions For the purposes of this guide, the following terms and definitions apply. The Authoritative Dictionary of IEEE Standards Terms B42should be
45、referenced for terms not defined in this clause. 3.1 ground resistance: The resistance of the irrigation system to earth, determined by a grounding electrode or by the contact of the irrigation equipment with the earth, or both. 3.2 irrigation equipment: Structures, pipes, nozzles, valves, etc., tha
46、t support, convey, direct, or control water or other equipment in an irrigation system. 3.3 irrigation system: An arrangement of equipment including a water supply that is assembled to systematically apply irrigation to an area. 3.4 leakage current: A component of the power line current that flows t
47、o earth via a water stream or spray that is contacting the power line. 4. Application This guide presents a reference source for the operation of irrigation systems located near or under electric power lines with minimal safety risks. The distances between the power line conductors and water spray n
48、ozzles that are given in this guide are based on commonly used body resistance values and other parameters that are representative of existing conditions and methods. For conditions where the values of parameters such as water resistivity, system ground resistance, and/or body resistance differ from
49、 those used here, the value of the power-line-conductor-to-nozzle distance can be determined using the equations and plots provided in this guide. 5. Types of irrigation systems 5.1 General From the many types of sprinkler irrigation systems, the ones of concern for this guide are those that travel or can be transported under power lines. Those systems include side roll, boom, traveler, center pivot, corner pivot, and lateral move (see 5.2 through 5.7). 1The NESC is available from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 445 Hoes Lane, Piscataway, NJ 088
