Answer / tauseef tarique, engineer(e)
The earth resistance value can be checked by the use of
earth resistance tester (called megger earth tester). The
best earth resistance should be less than one ohm but the
permissible value is less than 5 ohm. For rocky areas it
should be less than 8 ohms.

Answer / bhavini
earth tester use for measuring resistance of earth pit
should be less than 1 ohm.
Is This Answer Correct ? | 105 Yes | 26 No |
As such there is no any standard of earth resistance value,
Its varies on different type of soil resistivity. Idley it
should be 0, but in different kinds of soil for electrical
equipment it should be better to below 10 Ohms and for
electronic equipment it should be better to below 5 ohms.

we using the DMM in check the L - N , N- E ,E- L
this small calc
L-N - 230 v
N-E - BELLOW THE 2 VOLTS IS GOOD ERATH CONN
E-L - 230v IS RECONFORM TO GOOD EARTH OR NOT
L-N = E-L

Answer / bk sharma
It should be near <0.5 ohm for good earthing.
Is This Answer Correct ? | 64 Yes | 11 No |
Answer / bhanu
earth testers are used. and it is checked wheathe earh
resistance range is from 1-2 ohm or not.

how can we change the supply frequency?
Please tell me in DETAIL about the following 3 types of fuses or recommend me a good power system protection book or a website link ? 1.Dropout Fuse 2.Striker Fuse 3.Empulsive fuse (not sure if its impulsive or explosion fuse , sorry)

Why Nutral CT rating for Earth Fault Protection of Transformer neutral shall be 20% of Full load Current of Transformer
what is the meaning of DSL
Generally In transformer Tap Changer on HT side, but I have seen in 66KV side in 220/66 KV, 100 MVA, Areva make transformer. Why ?
The rating of Transformer are 11KV, 22KV, 33KV instead of 10KV, 20KV & 30KV?
before transformer oil dielectric strenght tests are taken the oil should be allowed to settle to remove option 1 air bubbles 2 gasses 3 contamination 4 water
when a cunductor is being disconnected from live cct, still it showing charged, if its checked by line tester?
