Answer / abdurrahim
For pipe earth pit its maximum 2 ohms and for grid it is
considering below 0.02 ohms..
to measure resistance for earth..there is one instrument
call earth resitance testor.Its value in ohms.
Resistivity means resitance/ meter...

What is the difference between shortcircuit current, rated current of cable & MCB with example? What will be the size of cable required for 5.5 KW motor (Full load current 10 Amps approx.), Starting current with DOL is 120 Amps. Aprrox. Short circuit current with LLLG fault is 2000 Amps Approx.
If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.
