What is the permissible value of earth resistance!
Answer Posted / rajkumar.d
There is a good deal of confusion as to what constitutes a
good ground and what the ground resistance value needs to
be. Ideally a ground should be of zero ohms resistance.
There is not one standard ground resistance threshold that
is recognized by all agencies. However, the NFPA and IEEE
have recom- mended a ground resistance value of 5.0 ohms or
less.
The NEC has stated to “Make sure that system impedance to
ground is less than 25 ohms specified in NEC 250.56. In
facilities with sen- sitive equipment it should be 5.0 ohms
or less.”

HELLO EVERYONE, I RECENTLY HAVE FOUND ONE PROBLEM, I WAS TAKING NO LOAD TRIAL OF AN HT MOTOR 920 MOTOR , 1440 RPM , 6.6 KV, WITH AUTO TRANSFORMER. AT 450 V, LOAD WAS 40 AMP AND SPEED WAS 250 RPM. BUT AS WE INCREASE VOLTAGE FROM 450 TO 480V, LOAD BECOME 41 AND SPEED REDUCED TO SOME RPM . SO WHICH PHENOMENON ACTED HERE FOR REDUCING SPEED.?? AND IS IT HAPPENING ALWAYS OR IT IS RARE? I ALSO HAVE FACED SUCH PROBLEM WITH FEW LT MOTOR ALSO.
