How is the ground resistance calculated in the instrument control room?

Thread Content

The instrument control room requires an earth resistance of less than 4 ohms, but how is this calculated? Could anyone give me an example to help me understand?

No, what I mean is that when doing the calculations, in designing this aspect, I need to take into account what thickness of wire and what length of cable are required to achieve a resistance of 4 ohms

Connect the wires using a ground resistance tester for measurement....

No, then how can I calculate how long a cable is needed to achieve a resistance of 4 ohms?

For vertical rods or hollow tubes, if their length is much greater than their diameter, the resistance can be calculated using the following formula: ρ/2πL, where ρ represents the soil resistance; L — Burial length of vertical bars or hollow tubes ; d — diameter of the vertical rod or hollow tube.

Yes, a 16mm cable, but how is the length calculated?
