Abstract

An important prerequisite for the correct and economical dimensioning of earthing conductors is knowledge of the geoelectric properties of the soil, i.e. soil resistance as a function of spatial coordinates. At the location of the future substation, sounding curves were recorded. The measurements were performed using the vertical electrical sounding method, with the Schlumberger probe arrangement, with overlapping. The measurement results were statistically processed, and the interpretation of the sounding curves was performed using the least squares method.
