what type of earthing is done on hilly rocks.

Answer Posted / munish sharma

In Rocky Area the soil resistivity comes out to be very
high.The overall grounging structure is based on following
criteria
1.Area Of the Switchyard
2.Surface Layer Resistivity
3.Soil Structure
4.Safety PArameters
5.Fault Current Distribution
There Are Certain Techniques in case of HIgh Soil
Resistivity as
1.Deep Groung well Earthing
2.If area is limited of the Switchyard,use Remote grid
along with main grid buried in low resistivity material
3. Soil Treatment
4. Use Grounging rods to take effect of deeoer low
resistivity layers

I have a drawing of a wound rotor induction motor for a crane. This crane motor has 5 forward speeds & 5 reverse speed implemented of course with different amount of resistance for each speed setting selected. What has got me scratching around is the fact that 8 of the 10 speed selections switch in uneven (unbalanced) amounts of resistances on each of the 3 connections to the motor's rotor.Can this be possible? I would have assumed this would produce unbalanced rotor currents and therefore vibration in the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on this. Many thanks, Confused.
