When stranded conductor is being used for earthing, It offers some reactance in addition to the resistance of the conductor. Since any kind of surge is of sudden in nature, and reactance opposes the change in flow of current (Property of Inductor), It might disturb the discharge rate of the surge. Hence the conductor is flat inorder to provide only the resistance

What is the process of charging a conductor by bringing it near another charged object and then grounding the conductor called?
Induction
Iec 60502 2xfgy 61kv xlpe can you use the armour as grounding conductor?
NO some armored cable has a ground some sealtite has copper in the helix wit the drain shield some liquite has no conduction at all all armor is a helix which is a coil and acts as insulation at hi frequency xlpe cross linked polyethylene is an insulator service cable is never used for grounding grounding electrode conductor grounding equipment conductor grounding conductor are all separate from service cables if a tall trucks hits an overhead cable you dont want to lose the ground in short NO
How many current carrying conductors can share the same grounding conductor in a single phase panel?
5
What is a conductor used to connect equipment or the grounded circuit of a wiring system to a grounding electrode or electrodes?
The conductor used to connect equipment or circuit to an earth electrode is earth bond or in some cases a supplementary bond. This will be generally carried out using a copper tape or an earth cable.
What is the difference between pipe earthing and plate earthing?
Assuming your reference to "earthing" is grounding (Grounding Electrode Conductor), a pipe is, as it sounds, a pipe (i.e. water pipe). A plate would be, as it sounds, a square (or rectangular) copper plate which would be buried in the ground.
What color wire is grounding conductor?
The grounding conductor is green, green with a yellow tracer or bare copper.
What is the process of bringing a negatively charged conductor in contact with the earth resulting in the conductor discharge until it is completely neutral called?
short
What color wire is a grounded conductor?
Grounded conductor is white 120/240 volt & gray 480 volt. Grounding conductor is green or green with yellow.
What is the process of connecting an object to Earth with a conductor called?
Grounding.

Induction
What property does earth have that enables grounding to drain static charged?
Earth is like a very large CONDUCTOR. That is how grounding occurs.
What is a Grounded conductor?
The grounded conductor (Neutral) can be white or gray. The grounding conductor can be solid green, Green with a yellow tracer or bare copper.
What is the grounding conductor connected to in a residential installation?
nutral bus in the subpanel
Is a grounding 120 volt receptacle larger than an ordinary receptacle?
No, it just has an additional conductor to separate the neutral from the ground, and has a third prong in the receptacle to receive the appliance grounding conductor through the cordset.

When an object shares its excess charge with a much larger conductor it is called?
grounding
What is the meaning of ecc in electrical?
ECC stands for Earth Continuity Conductor. It is a grounding component of the electrical system. An ECC can be a bare conductor, a single conductor or a part of a multi-conductor cable.
