DESCRIPTION
2.0 Purpose
Plant grounding is carried out to dissipate electric current into the earth without exceeding any
operating limits and to ensure that a person in the vicinity of ground is not exposed to the danger of
critical electric shock.
Therefore the grounding system of the Plant area is designed to achieve the followings: -
1. To find the earth conductor size with corrosion for design life.
2. To keep touch and step voltage within permissible limit.
3. To keep earth grid resistance within permissible limit.
3.0 Soil Modelling
Maximum observed soil resistivity in the plant area has been considered to
calculate the earth grid design.
