Abstract :
SUBTRANSMISSION systems can be grounded through a solid connection, a reactance, a resistance, or a combination of the latter two. In selecting a grounding method it is necessary to consider the following: ground relaying sensitivity, magnitude of ground fault currents, degree of overvoltage protection obtained from the arrester rating applicable, severity of transient overvoltages, and relative cost.
