This paper presents a comparison on the resistance and characteristics of transient response of grounding systems under surge currents using frequency domain electromagnetic field analysis software package and field test. Analysis is done by computer model, based on electromagnetic field theory approach, that accurately takes into account frequency dependent characteristics of the system. The transient performance of three grounding systems is analyzed by comparison of frequency dependent impedance and the maximal transient GPR. A double exponential lighting surge current is injected at one corner of the grounding systems. The transient GPRs a rod grounding systems are higher than mesh or electrolytic grounding systems. Af field test, the results of resistance measurement and time-variant of ground resistance slightly reduce electorlytic grounding systems less than rod and mesh grounding systems.

In order to analyze ground potential rise of grounding system installed in buildings, the hemispherical grounding simulation system has been designed and fabricated as substantial and economical measures. Ground potential rise(GPR) has been measured and analyzed for shapes of grounding electrode using the system in real time. The system is apparatus to have a free reduced scale for conductor size and laying depth of a full scale grounding system and is constructed so that a shape of equipotential surface is nearly identified a free reduced scale with a real scale when a current flows through grounding electrode. The system was composed of a hemispherical water tank, AC Power supply, a movable potentiometer, and test grounding electrodes. The test grounding electrodes were fabricated through reducing grounding electrode installed in real buildings such as rod type, mesh grid type. When a mesh grid type was associated with a rod type, GPR was the lowest value. The proposed results would be applicable to evaluate GPR in the grounding systems. and the analytical data can be used 0 stabilize the electrical installations and prevent the electrical disasters.

This paper presents the surges response of the grounding systems using frequency domain electromagnetic field analysis software package. The frequency and time domain performance of a building grounding systems subjected to a lighting strike is described and discussed. The computed scalar potentials is presented graphically as a function of spatial coordinates. A double exponential lighting surge current is injected at one corner or the building grounding systems. Time-variant response of rod, mesh and kit grounding systems under impulse currents have been obtained. This paper deals with the results of studies on the time variation of ground resistance in three grounding systems.

Measuring ground resistance has been a popular method of evaluation of the grounding electrode performance. If some portions of grounding electrodes are lost by corrosion, aging or other reasons, consequent deteriotation of the grounding performance would be resulted. It is one of the reasons why it is required to evaluate the performance of grounding systems regularly. However, in case of the electric facilities with multi-grounded system such as power substations with multi-grounded overhead ground wires and/or distribution line neutrals, it is practically difficult to disconnect neutrals or skywires from the substation grounding mesh for the ground resistance measurement. In this paper, a method for the grounding performance measurement of multi-grounded systems, which is based on the measuring ground current distributions, has been proposed. A field test results has shown the validity of the proposed test method.

Earth resistivity and changing of grounding electrode's shape are very important factor to reduce grounding resistance. Earth resistivity has different values according to property of soil and is effected by temperature, climate, and environment. This Paper describes the effect of the grounding resistance according to the grounding type such as driven rod, counterpoise grounding and mesh grounding. And also grounding resistance values with earth resistivity and shape of grounding electrode were represented in this paper.

Electronic devices are very weak against lightning surges injected from grounding systems and can be damaged. The malfunction and damage of electronic circuits bring about several disadvantages such as low operation performances, a lot of economical losses, and etc. In order to obtain the effective protection measure of electronic devices from overvoltages and lightning surges, the analysis of the transient grounding impedances is very important. The aim of this work is to evaluate the behaviors of transient grounding impedances under impulse currents and to investigate the effect of grounding lead wire. Z-t, Z-i and V-i curves of transient grounding impedance under impulse current waveforms have been measured and analyzed.

In these days, large structures are constructed and bonded with ground grid Because the distances between mesh and auxiliary electrodes are not enough in downtown areas, it is very difficult to measure the ground resistance of large scale grounding electrode systems. Actually the auxiliary electrodes for test are installed in grounding grid. This paper present the experimental results of ground resistance and impedance according to the location of auxiliary electrode. As a result, we get much lower resistances and impedances than real values the auxiliary electrodes are placed in the ground grid. In case that the auxiliary electrodes are located in the ground grid the resistances are very low and reactance only is inductive component.

There are various shapes such as square, rectangular, L, and T type in the grounding systems of substations. IEEE St-d suggests the formula considering the characteristics of the various grounding systems but the final value can not be taken, and them the analysis of complicated computer program for obtaining the more accurate value is needed. In his paper, by using CDEGS(Current, Distribution, Electromagnetic and Soil Structure Analysis) the estimated functions derives form the modification coefficient for each of various types above mentioned. The mesh voltage expected can be obtained without the conventional expensive program using compensating methods that multiply IEEE formula by the estimated function.

Since DC ground resistance, which is a good index of the performance of a grounding system in low frequency. does not show the performance in transient state. We measured ground impedances in frequency domain ranging from 0.1 Hz to 900 KHz maximum to quantify the transient grounding performance of 4 types of grounding system. Transfer function was derived from the measured frequency-dependant ground impedance of a grounding grid. A simulation has been performed to verify the transfer function using EMTP (Electro-Magnetic Transient Program).
