What are the recommended resistances for different levels of earthing pits?

AI Thread Summary
Different levels of earthing pits require specific resistance values for effective grounding. Transmission stations typically need an earthing resistance of around 5 ohms, while distribution stations should aim for about 2 ohms. The discussion highlights that earthing pits can be part of broader earthing systems or standalone grounding systems. For further reference, Grounding Riddle No.19 provides additional insights on grounding systems. Proper resistance levels are crucial for safety and system performance.

There are different levels of earthing pits. Like transmission stations, local substations, etc. Can someone specify the resistances of the earthing pits that each of them in level should actually have.

Earth pit can be a portion of earthing systems although it can be a grounding system entirely.
For typical amount of grounding systems you can refer to Grounding riddle No.19 from http://electrical-riddles.com

Are you iranian?
 
I read that earthing pits should be around 5 ohm for transmission stations, and 2 ohms for distribution station.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
