Answer / anand

bwlow 1 ohm

Answer / anilram

for perfect earting it should be zero ohms. for pratically
at site it 1-5 ohms . in large substations the should be
below one ohm

Answer / seth roosevelt dabri

it is between o - 0.5 ohms in large substations the should be
below one ohm

Answer / sreenu

IT'S ABOUT THE RANGE LIKE 0.7 TO 0.8 . DUE TO COMPONENTS
PRESENT IN EARTH.

Answer / jan

No fixed rule. depends upon site. better keep it as low as
possible else high touch/step voltage

Answer / syed qamar abbas

The ideal value of earth resistance allowed is 1 ohm or less
for equipment's body earthing or grounding like generator,
Main distribution boards , motors etc. On other hand the
value of earth resistance allowed for lightning protection
system is 10 ohms (ideal)

Answer / bilal descon

1 ohm is ideal, but thats depend from place to place.
Near desert ares its more up to 20 ohm, but normally
betweem 0 to 25 ohm is acceptable

Answer / sethu

perfect earth value - 1.5 ohm
lighting arrest earth value - 1.7 ohm

Answer / anubhav gupta

Resistance of earth should be zero but it can't possible. however, according to NFPA &IEEE the resistance of earth is 5 our less

Answer / giridhar

after parallaing two generators current is shooting up in both the generators.for ex: load is 400 kw..after paralling and load sharing current in running gen is approx 900 amps and incoming is 750 amps which is too high when trying toshift the load current in incoming gen is coming more than 1300 amps and both getting tripped and making blackout..
