Abstract
Grounding grid plays an important role in protection of main device for power system. With the increase of power capacity and voltage level, the safety of grounding grid is particularly important. In this paper, the seriously corroded flat steel of grounding grid in 220kV substation was investigated by means of different test methods. The result showed that electrode potentials difference existed between different locations on the surface of the buried grounding electrode was the major reason to cause electrochemical corrosion. Meanwhile, higher sulphur and chlorine content of the soil around the substation caused by long-term industrial pollution, led to rapid depletion of zinc coating and acceleration of corrosion process of grounding material. Additionally, effective suggestions were presented in order to reduce the grounding resistance and improve the anti-corrosion performance.
