  • Abstract
    Summary from only given, as follows. A complete modelling of a grounding system made by ground meshes, connected or not in multilayer soil is presented. A 3D approach is used to model rods or wire conductors, grave layers and conductor plates that are commonly found in grounding systems. This methodology uses an original shape function to model the stratified soil and is applied to the analysis of a practical case. The computation of ground resistance is done by power loss considerations.
