Measures electrical resistance of grounding system. Low resistance ensures safety by quickly dissipating faults to ground.

Przewodnik krok po kroku

  1. 1Rod length and diameter affect resistance
  2. 2Soil resistance varies (clay 10, loam 50, sand 1000+ ohms)
  3. 3Resistance ≈ (ρ ÷ L) × (ln(8L÷d) - 2)
  4. 4Target <5 ohms for safety (varies by code)
  5. 5Multiple rods in parallel reduce resistance

Rozwiązane przykłady

Wejście
20 ohm rod, 2 meter deep
Wynik
5-10ohm

Częste błędy do unikania

  • Not measuring resistance after installation
  • Using single rod in high-resistance soil

Często zadawane pytania

Why is low earthing resistance critical?

Allows fault current to return safely; high resistance causes dangerous voltages.

How do I improve earthing resistance?

Longer rods, lower soil resistance (add bentonite), multiple rods, better soil moisture.
