PURPOSE
‘This document provides the resistance calculation for the earthing grid. Earthing system is designed to limit
the earth grid resistance to 1 ohm in accordance with the tender documents,
BASIS FOR EARTHING SYSTEM DESIGN
Soil resistivity varies with depth. The average value taken depth wise is 10 ohm metre.
For Calculation a soll resistivity value of 15 ohm metre is considered,
