Earth Mat Design For 132 Kv Substation

Can t do the earth mat design separately for each step and finally connect each steps together.

Earth mat design for 132 kv substation. Earth mat design in 33 11 kv power substation live working substation. Though manual calculation is a good software tools ensure a detailed design so that the earth mat is neither under designed hence safe nor this paper presents the complete design of earth mat for a 33 11kv indoor gis gas insulated switchgear. Could u please explain me how to do the earth mat design for 220 132 33 kv outdoor gss which have 5 steps 135m 138m 141m 144m 147m. Earth mat design can be done by manual calculations as well as with the help of computer software.

Earthing mat design for sub station switchyard. Earth mat in 110kv side of a 220 110 kv substation the fence equipment body tanks support structures towers structural steelworks water pipes etc. Earth mats manufactured from high conductivity copper tape also reduce the danger of exposure to high step and touch voltages to substation and authorised personnel working on high voltage switching providing reliable earthing in high fault current and step potential avoidance applications such as high voltage substations and switchrooms. This paper presents the design of earthing systems for the 132 33kv substation in rivers state of nigeria and the review of substation practices with special reference to safety and development criteria for safe design.

In high and medium voltage air insulated substations ais the electromagnetic field which causes are the static charges of bare cable and conductors and by the atmospheric conditions surges induce voltages at no live parts of the installation that create potential differences between metallic parts and ground and also between different points of. The substation grounding system comprises of a grid earth mat formed by a horizontal buried conductors before 1960s the design criterion of substation earthing system was low earth resistance earth resistance 0 5 ohms for high voltage installations during 1960s the new criteria for the design and evaluation of substation.
