Answer / pradeep kumar dhar
The resistance value varies according to the nature of the
soil.It is very high for rocky soils.A value of 1 ohm or
less is considered to be very good.Several pits are
interconnected to reduce the value of earth resistance.

The resistance value depanded to the nature of the
soil.The resistance value is very high for Hill area. when
resistance value of lessthan 1 ohm this value is very good.

Answer / parmod kumar
The resistance value of Earth Pit should below 1 Ohm &
Earth pit are connected to reduce the earth resistance
value.

Answer / ajoy kumar
In some cases like rocky soil, the resistance value of individual earthpit become more than 5 ohms. For these cases, we can consider the combined earthing and it should be atleast less than 1 ohm.

Our Alternator nameplate specifies a power factor of 0.8. When the Alternator is on light load, the bus bar voltage rises to 11240 volts, whereas the standard value is 10500 volts. Is it ok to increase the power factor to 0.85 or 0.9. I am afraid because the power factor on the name plate is only 0.8 ?
