замыкание на землю
Случайный электрический контакт между токоведущими частями, находящимися под напряжением, и землей.
[ПУЭ]

замыкание на землю
Замыкание, обусловленное соединением с землей.
[ ГОСТ 26522-85]

замыкание на землю
Состояние, характеризующееся возникновением случайной проводящей цепи между проводником, находящимся под напряжением, и землей.
Примечание - Проводящая цепь может проходить через поврежденную изоляцию, строительные конструкции (колонны, леса, краны, лестницы) или растения (деревья, кусты) и может иметь значительное полное сопротивление.
[ ГОСТ Р МЭК 60050-195-2005]

EN

earth fault
occurrence of an accidental conductive path between a live conductor and the Earth
NOTE – The conductive path can pass through a faulty insulation, through structures (e.g. poles, scaffoldings, cranes, ladders), or through vegetation (e.g. trees, bushes) and can have a significant impedance.
[IEV number 195-04-14]

FR

défaut à la terre
occurrence d’un chemin conducteur accidentel entre un conducteur sous tension et la Terre
NOTE – Le chemin conducteur peut passer par une isolation défectueuse, par des structures (par exemple supports de ligne, échafaudages, grues, échelles), ou encore par la végétation (par exemple arbres, buissons) et peut présenter une impédance non négligeable.
[IEV number 195-04-14]

Параллельные тексты EN-RU

The earth fault, caused by an insulation loss between a live conductor and an exposed conductive part, represents a plant engineering problem which may cause damage to the electrical installations and above all may jeopardize people; as a matter of fact, people could get in touch with an exposed-conductive-part not normally live but which, due to the fault, might have a dangerous potential to ground.
[ABB]

Замыкание на землю, вызванное повреждением изоляции между токоведущим проводником и открытой проводящей частью, представляют определенную проблему при эксплуатации электроустановок, поскольку такая неисправность может привести к выходу электрооборудования из строя и, кроме того, подвергает людей опасности поражения электрическим током. Это объясняется тем, что становится возможным прикосновение к открытой проводящей части, которая в нормальных условиях не находится под напряжением, но из-за повреждения изоляции может приобрести опасный потенциал относительно земли.
