TT- is mainly for consumer power

supplies.The owner must install the earthing


protection by their own connection to the
earth.The advantage is the reductionnoise of
high or low frequency,no risk of  failure and 
suitable for premises where all AC power
circuits are residual current device (RCD)
protected.s
IT-This system is similar with TT system but
different in earthing supply.The distributor
system  has only a high impedance
connection.This type is not for consumer
power supply and used  for power distributor
such as substation or generator area.
 TN-S system The consumer’s earthing
terminal is usually  connected to the metallic
part of the distributor’s cable .This is used for
underground power supply to the premise or
factory from the distributor substation to
customer substation.
 TN-C-S system-This system has the supply
neutral conductor of a distribution main
connected with earth at source as protective
multiple earthing.
TN-C-This system ist a combined PEN
conductor fulfills the functions of both a
PE(protective conductors) and an N(neutal)
conductor
Different types of earthing are needed to suit
the particular
consumer(domestic/industrial/HT/LT
consumer).
