Earthing Cabinet in the Control Room
 Earthing Cabinet in the Control Room In an FPSO (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading) vessel's control room, the Earth Cabinet  plays a critical role in ensuring electrical safety and system integrity . Here's a breakdown of its purpose: 🔌 Primary Functions of the Earth Cabinet: Electrical Grounding : It provides a common grounding point  for all electrical systems and equipment in the control room. This helps prevent electrical shock hazards and ensures safe dissipation of fault currents. Lightning and Surge Protection : Protects sensitive control and instrumentation systems from voltage spikes  due to lightning or switching surges. Signal Reference Ground : Ensures that all control signals (especially analog and digital signals) have a stable reference , reducing noise and improving signal integrity. Fault Detection and Isolation : Helps in identifying ground faults  in the system, which is crucial for maintenance and troubleshooting. Compliance with Safety Standard...
