2.3 Earth resistance measurement [Ze and Re]
Earth resistance measurement is one of the most important parameters for protection
against electric shock. Correct earthing of exposed conductive parts of the object
assures that the voltage on these parts stay below dangerous level in case of a fault or
lightning strike. In such case, a fault current will flow through the earthing electrode.
Fault currents close to power distribution objects (substations, distribution towers, power
generations, industrial plants) can be very high, also up to 200 kA, which can cause
high (dangerous) voltages on conductive parts due to the improper earthing.
In the practice it is not always easy to acquire earth electrode which ensures sufficient
earth resistance. We must be aware that the earth resistance is changing during the
yearly seasons.
Metrel recommends periodical testing of earth resistance to ensure safety operation in
case of fault.
2.3.1 Functionality and placing of test probes
For a standard earthing resistance two test probes (voltage and current electrode) are
used. Because of the influence of voltage funnel, it is important, that the test electrodes
are placed correctly. More information about principles described in this document can
be found in the handbook: Grounding, bonding, and shielding for electronic equipment
and facilities.
Figure 28-2: Placement of measuring probes (62% method)
Correct probes placing is essential. If the S probe is placed too close to the earthing
system, then too small resistance will be measured (only a part of the voltage funnel
