ISTR from discussions in the past that there are various alternative earthing schemes used with regard to mains earthing - some of which use an earth provided by the electricity supplier, and some of which don't.
Can some kind soul please either remind me of the salient characteristics of each scheme - or point me to an on-line source of said information, with particular reference to:
- how I determine which sort I've got
- which schemes (if any) continue to provide an earth in the event of a power cut
Many thanks.
