If the planned building is designed to contain the
effects of an explosion, the formula D (distance) =
3.0 w1/3 (w=weight) can be used to determine
separation distances for less than 20,000 lb.
5.1.5.4 BUILDING SERVICE ENTRANCE
The electrical service entrance for explosives facilities shall be provided with:
1.
An intermediate, metal-oxide surge lightning arrester on the primary side of the transformer.
2.
Surge arresters and surge capacitors on the supply side of the main service disconnect.
3.
Interconnected grounding between the lightning arrester, surge arrester, surge capacitors,
service entrance ground, and building ground.
