Understanding of Grounding & Effective Grounding System for Substations Dr. Arora Rajesh Kumar Delhi Transco Limited Online Published on 07 December, 2021. Abstract The main purpose of grounding electrical systems is to provide a suitably low resistance path for the discharge of fault current which ultimately provide safety to working personnel and costly equipments in the substation. The flow of heavy fault current results in rise of potential in the substation area and with respect to remote ground. There is need to ensure that the ground potential rise, and touch and step voltages are within permissible limit. An accurate soil model is required to design grounding system of the substation that ensures that the resistance of the grounding grid through the earth is sufficiently low. Soil resistivity data is of fundamental importance in performing grounding system analyses. Reliable data is required to achieve good correlation between design and measured grounding system performance. This paper provides overview and importance of grounding system. Besides above key factors for designing of effective grounding systems are also discussed in this paper. Top Keywords Grounding, Soil Resistivity, Safe Potentials, Ground Resistance, Grounding System. Top | | |
