SOIL RESISTIVITY AND EARTHING SYSTEM

Journal Title: International Journal of Management, IT and Engineering - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 9

Abstract

Soil resistivity and earthing system plays a key role in generation, transmission and distribution for safe and proper operation of any electric power system. Soil resistivity directly affects the design of a grounding system. When designing an extensive grounding system it is advisable to locate the area of lowest soil resistivity in order to achieve the economical grounding installation. Neither very low resistivity nor very high resistivity is safe for human safety under power system fault conditions. The earthing or grounding is mainly affected by soil resistivity. This study will briefly explain the soil resistivity and earthing system.
