Abstract

An expression for the resistance of the grounding electrode placed in the in homogeneous ground approximated by a finite number of homogeneous layers of constant specific conductivity has been evaluated and proposed in the paper. The expression is obtained by optimization procedure, based on processing of data sets obtained as a result of the analysis which includes using of the Green’s function for the point source in multilayered soil and the Method of Moments. The approach has been applied to the characterization of a vertical electrode placed in the three-layered soil. Key words: Green’s functions methods, Grounding, Optimization methods.
