Answer / guest
Ra+Rb+Rc=R
Ra=Length/ depth of the ground electrode•Electrode material
- Solid Copper, Stainless steel (High conductivity,
highcorrosion resistance but low strength & high cost)-
Copper clad steel (high strength, high corrosion
resistanceand low cost)
• The diameter of the rod
- Has little effect- Resistance would only decrease by 10%
by double thediameter
(
R
B
) - The contact resistance of the surrounding earthto the
electrode is negligible.(
R
C
)- The resistance of the surrounding body of eartharound the
ground electrode
- depends on soil conditions such as soil resistivity
