how to check the earth resistance value& what is the
minimum earth resistance for good earthing sysytem.
Answer Posted / tauseef tarique, engineer(e)
The earth resistance value can be checked by the use of
earth resistance tester (called megger earth tester). The
best earth resistance should be less than one ohm but the
permissible value is less than 5 ohm. For rocky areas it
should be less than 8 ohms.
