What should be the earthing resistance of an industrial
substation and also What should be the house hold earthing
resistance?

Answer Posted / krishna naik

The earthing resistance of an industrial substation
should maintain always below 1 ohm. it measured of
resistance between earth plae and natural earth by ohm
meter. when earth resistance is near to zero means better
earthing.
The household earthing resistance somewhat slight above
1 ohm and below 2 ohm is the tollerable limit, but never
neglect above 2 ohm. the resistance below 1 ohm means more
safety.
