Professional Earthing Audit Services – Compliance, Safety & Performance

An Earthing Audit is a systematic technical evaluation of an existing earthing (grounding) system to verify its safety, effectiveness, and compliance with Indian and international standards.
DFMHUB provides end-to-end Earthing Audit services across India for industrial, commercial, utility, and infrastructure facilities—helping organizations reduce electrical hazards, prevent equipment damage, and meet audit/insurance requirements.


What Is an Earthing Audit?

An Earthing Audit assesses whether your grounding system:

  • Safely dissipates fault and lightning currents

  • Maintains low earth resistance under real operating conditions

  • Ensures equipotential bonding to avoid touch & step voltage risks

  • Complies with IS 3043, IEC standards, NBC of India, and client/insurance norms

The outcome is a clear, actionable report highlighting deficiencies and upgrade recommendations.


Scope of Earthing Audit by DFMHUB

1) Site Survey & Documentation Review

  • Single-line diagrams & layout verification

  • Earthing drawings vs. as-built checks

  • Load type, fault levels & environmental conditions

2) Visual & Physical Inspection

  • Earth electrodes, pits, strips, and joints

  • Corrosion, mechanical damage & accessibility

  • Identification of parallel/isolated earth paths

3) Electrical Testing & Measurements

  • Earth resistance testing (fall-of-potential / clamp method)

  • Continuity testing of conductors & bonds

  • Soil resistivity (where required)

4) Bonding & Safety Verification

  • Equipotential bonding of structures & services

  • Touch & step potential risk assessment

  • Compliance with separation distances

5) Compliance Evaluation

  • Conformance to IS 3043 / IEC

  • Gaps vs. statutory, insurance & client standards

FAQs – Earthing Audit

Is an Earthing Audit mandatory?
Often required for insurance, safety, and statutory audits, especially for critical facilities.

Do you include testing?
Yes—earth resistance, continuity, and bonding checks are integral to our audit.

Will you redesign the system if it’s inadequate?
We provide upgrade designs, BOQ, and execution support if needed.

Which standards do you follow?
Primarily IS 3043, relevant IEC standards, and NBC of India.
