Earth resistance and touch and step voltages in TS 35/10 kV Vrgorac
Abstract
For protection against excessive voltage occurrences in power plants, protective and lightning arrester grounding is used, which are most often connected to each other and galvanically connected to the groundings of other facilities through the protective ropes of transmission lines and cable sheaths. The fundamental safety condition that must be satisfied by the earthing device is that the step and touch voltage must not exceed the predetermined values anywhere. In the most unfavorable case, which is the occurrence of a double ground connection, the step and touch voltage meets the technical regulations on the grounding of power plants.
