Soil Ionization

The soil ionization phenomenon occurs during the dispersion of lightning current into the earth. This phenomenon causes the grounding electrode resistance to be effectively reduced. The extension of the soil ionization depends on the current amplitude along the electrode and the resultant electric field intensity surrounding the electrode. The electrical and physical parameters of the grounding electrode system are found as factors that affect the electric field intensity. In this study the electromagnetic field approach and the soil breakdown theory are taken into account to investigate the effect of the mentioned factors on soil ionization and grounding resistance. Changing the parameters of the grounding electrode system affect the electric field distribution around the electrode. Based on the conditions the grounding electrode resistance was reduced between 12% to 75% by considering the soil ionization effect.

Grounding Electrode

The purpose of arranging the grounding electrode is to discharge large currents, such as fault current and ensure the transmission line operate safely. In the grounding system of Chinese transmission network, the common grounding electrodes are horizontal installation and vertical installation. But two installation methods usually have the disadvantages, which are long distance installation and large depth burying, and they are restricted susceptible to uncertain factors such as pipelines, roads and geology, which leads the grounding resistance increasing and affect the normal operation of transmission lines. In order to solve the problem, this paper presents a new grounding model for complex soil environments and analysis from grounding resistance, surface potential and current distribution. The results show that the helix grounding electrode has good resistance reduction performance in complex soil environment, which effectively improves the surface potential distribution and the distribution of the spill current.

Grounding electrodes are used to ensure safe operation of electrical apparatus. The limited axial construction space for grounding electrodes is a significant constraining factor. Grounding performance will attenuate rapidly under the influence of the reduced length of horizontal or vertical grounding electrodes. However, if additional resistance-reducing measures are adopted, the operation and maintenance cost of grounding electrodes will considerably increase. To solve above problem, this study proposed a novel grounding model that uses a helical grounding electrode to improve grounding performance within limited axial construction space. Firstly, a calculation model of finite element methods (FEM) is built based on the concept of increasing the contact area between the grounding electrodes and the soil. Grounding performance parameters of helical grounding electrodes, grounding resistance, electrical potential rise (EPR) distribution and maximum touch voltage, are analyzed. At the same time, structural parameters and buried depth for the helical grounding electrodes are studied and the optimal design criteria for the parameters are given. Results show that the helical grounding electrode exhibits better grounding performance in a limited axial construction area.

Reliability and the existence of a reliable and sustainable electric power are very basic needs in the life of today's era. There are a number of things that can affect the reliability of electric power, one of which is protection that is standard and reliable. Grounding on the network must be within the specified standard limits. There are several ways that can be used to improve the value of grounding resistance, including by parallelizing the grounding electrode with other electrodes as far as two times the length of the electrode. In this way the value of the grounding resistance of half of the early grounding prisoners will be obtained. In this basic competency study using new breakthroughs on the method of decreasing the value of grounding resistance using conductive cement. Conductive cement made from charcoal mixed with cement, the value of earth resistance can be reduced without having to add new electrodes. This method can be applied in a number of cases such as limited land and also other obstacles to electrode installation such as the presence of gas pipes under the network. The use of conductive cement can also reduce the cost of decreasing the value of grounding resistance because it does not require a charge as large as the parallel electrode.
