What is the difference between earth resistance and earth
electrode resistance?
Answer Posted / sajib
Only one of the terminals is evident in the earth
resistance. In order to find the second terminal we should
recourse to its definition: Earth Resistance is the
resistance existing between the electrically accessible part
of a buried electrode and another point of the earth, which
is far away
The resistance of the electrode has the
following components:
(A) the resistance of the metal and that of the connection
to it.
(B) the contact resistance of the surrounding earth to the
electrode.
(C) the resistance in the surrounding earth to current flow
or earth
resistivity which is often the most significant factor.

How do i perform grounding of star point of Genset (400V) for making connection with step up transformer of DELTA-DELTA (400V to 20KV) ? while Genset itself has its own neutral and grounding bus bar inside genset breaker box whereas we have another neutral and grounding busbar in synchronizing panel next to genset at maximum distance of 6meter, would someone pls advice if we can only perform neutral grounding in synchronizing panel or should we ground neutral on both places inside genset breaker box and synchronizing panel.

A 400 V, 50 Hz, Δ connected synchronous generator has a field reactance of 0.1 Ω and armature resistance of 0.015 Ω. At full load, the machine supplies 1200 A at 0.8 pf lagging. Under full-load conditions, the friction and windage losses are 40 KW and the core losses are 30 KW. What is the machine’s overall efficiency? Ignore any field circuit losses.
