Try and get a copy of
"EMC for systems and installations"
by Timm Williams & keith Armstrong
ISBN 0-7506-41676-3
Newnes
www.newnspress.com

this has as much information on earthing systems as you can digest from one book it also lists
european IEC En standards and some US codes

another good book is
"Electrical product safety" (Tzimenakis & Holland)
Newnes 0-7506-4604-7

good luck
jeff
