This requirement is needed to enable the successful electrification of the Core Valley Lines.

An effective E&B system will assist in minimising any identified Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) issues across an installation.

Earthing and Bonding will need to be installed across the route, on all OLE assets, stations, bridges, fences and other metal assets to:

- Ensure personal safety for those located on or about the railway,

- Provide a safe return path for current in the event of an electrical fault,
