z When there is no grounding strip but earth near the equipment room that allows
a grounding body to be buried, hammer an angle iron/steel pipe longer than 0.5

ground it through the PE wire of the AC power supply. In this case, make sure
this PE wire is well connected to the ground at the power distribution room or AC
