Abstract

The paper presents the Meterglob Project , focused on practical tools to assess Global Earthin g Systems in an urbanized area with a dense MV/LV distribution network. Present norms do not include any suggestion on how to assess reliably the presence o f a GES and if and how take into account the influence of extraneous buried conductive parts. Two models have been developed. The first model is used to compute the partition of a single phase to groun d fault current between the earthing grids of the MV/LV substations and the MV cable shields of the lines connecting the substations. The second model consid ers the influence of buried metallic structures on the earth potential rise and on the earth potential profile. The two models have been experimentally verified with an ex tensive campaign of measurements, still under way, with the objective of synthetizing the results in practical and easy to assess indicators.
