Do you know how to measure the earth resistance? if so
explain it
Answer Posted / ahmad abu alrob
Normally no meaning for earth resistance, we use a
measurement of resistance in a definite location to
calculate the Earth Resistivity which can be used for the
calculation of Grounding/ Earthing mesh resistance.
Measurement can be done in one of the following:
1- Normal Volt/ Ampere method: Inject current and measure
voltage , then you will got the resistance.
OR
2- Wenner method using 4 electrodes: You should use the
equipment especially used for this purpose, and you should
follow the instruction attached with the equipment.
OR
3- Using Schlumberger method applying 4 electrodes: same
equipment used in 2 but different calculation applied.

we have earthmat at 110KV substation.we would like to take earth resistance.b some says that by connecting earth megger terminals (C1,P1) at middile point of earthmat (at riser) will cause voltage gradient at other earthmat nods and dont get exat earth resistance.when connecting at end nods will get exat value . is it correct .please explain
