Earthing Systems - Basic Constructional Aspects

Functions of earthing systems and fundamental requirements

The function of an earthing system is to provide:

• protective earthing
• functional earthing in electric power systems
• lightning protection.

The protective earthing system provides interconnection or bonding of all metallic parts (exposed and extraneous conductive parts) that a person or an animal could touch. Under normal, fault-free, circumstances there is no relative potential on these parts, but under fault conditions a dangerous potential may arise as fault current flows. The function of an earthing system is the protection of life against electric shock, the fundamental requirement being that the earthing potential, V_E, at a prospective short circuit current, I_E, does not exceed the permissible touch voltage, V_F:

V_E ≤ V_F (1)

Thus, the maximum permitted value of earthing resistance is:

R = V_F / I_E (2)

where I_E is the single-phase short circuit current under the most unfavourable conditions.

In industrial installations, as well as in power substations, earthing systems of the low- and high-voltage systems are often common due to limited ground area available. In isolated earth (IT) type installations, protective earthing should be implemented as a common system with the high-voltage protective earthing, independently of the type of neutral point operation (i.e. insulated or compensated).

Functional earthing relates to the need for certain points of the electrical system to be connected to the earthing system in order to ensure correct operation. A typical example is earthing of the neutral point of a transformer.

Lightning protection earthing conducts lightning currents to the earth. Lightning currents can reach very high peak values, i_p, and cause very high values of earthing electrode potentials, V_E, which can be calculated with the following formula:

V_E ≈ √( (L · di_p/dt)² + (i_pR_p)² ) (3)

where:

L is the inductance of earthing electrode and lightning conductors

R_p is the impulse resistance of the earthing electrode.

Depending on the lightning current and the properties of the earthing system, potential V_E can reach very high values, up to some hundreds or even thousands of kV. Because these values are much higher than the network operating voltages, lightning often causes back-flashover or induced over-voltages in the network. Thus, full protection of installations against lightning requires the provision of a system of lightning arrestors and spark gaps.

Resistance and surface potential distribution of typical earth electrode constructions

Simple surface earth electrodes are metal rods, strips or pipes placed horizontally under the surface of the ground at a given depth, t, as shown in Figure 1. Usually the length of these elements, l, is much larger than t. Given this assumption, the earth surface potential distribution of the earth electrode, in direction x perpendicular to the length l, is described by the following formula:
