What is different between resistance grounding system and resistance earthing system?..

Answer / Arti Pandey

Resistance grounding (RG) and resistance earthing (RE) are both methods used to reduce voltage surges and earth potential rise in electrical systems. The main difference lies in their application and purpose. Resistance grounding is typically used for protecting equipment from overvoltage, while resistance earthing is used for providing a low-impedance path to ground for the system's neutral point. In RG, the resistor is connected between the ground and either the source or the load, while in RE, the resistor is connected between the neutral point of the system and ground.
