What are the various methods for effecive earthing in a
factory in a rocky terrain, where soil resistivity is
extraordinarily high? The usual method of 3 m deep earth
pits is not serving the purpose.

Answer Posted / brian

Import good black soil from some where else,mix it with alot
of salt and charcoal dust, dig atleast 2 pits in a space of
10metres apart.
Let each pit have its own earth mat and burry it wit the
mixture mentioned above ie salt, black soil and charcoal
dust and then bond or interconnect the earth mats wit an
earthwire of ATLEAST 35mm2.
Finally pour alot of water in the pits.
