Impact of climatic variations on seasonal changes of earthing resistance [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Seasonal soil-moisture flux causes time-varying soil resistivity and earthing resistance, which can compromise the safety of power-system earthing installations. Using representative sites in South Africa and Nigeria under comparable climates, this paper

Monitoring, Detection and Locating of Transient Earth Fault Using Zero-Sequence Current and Cable Screen Earthing Current in Medium Voltage Cable and Mixed Feeders

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
This paper presents the final development of an expert system utilizing a measurement of cable screen earthing transient current. The developed system allows for identification and location of earth fault in underground cable and mixed lines (underground

Detection and Location of Earth Fault in MV Feeders Using Screen Earthing Current Measurements

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The paper analyzes the utilization of cable screen currents for earth fault identification and location. Attention is paid on cable and mixed feeders—cable and overhead lines. The principle of operation is based on utilization of 3 criterion values:

Earth system economics: a biophysical approach to the human component of the Earth system [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics, 2020
Abstract. The study of humans has largely been carried out in isolation from the study of the non-human Earth system. This isolation has encouraged the development of incompatible philosophical, aspirational, and methodological approaches that have proven very difficult to integrate with those used for the non-human remainder of the Earth system. Here,

Frequency Domain Analysis of a Wind Turbine Generator Earthing System for Lightning Discharge Currents

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
A safe and cost-effective design of a wind turbine generator (WTG) grounding system requires accurate modeling of local soil resistivity, particularly when wind turbines are spatially distributed across a wide area with different soil types and features.

A Comprehensive Framework for Direct Lightning-Structure-Human Interaction Modelling in Heritage Monuments and Safety Assessment

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Lightning is a perilous and unavoidable event of nature that presents major deleterious consequences on humans, tall structures, electrical power systems, forests, etc. Though several research studies have been carried out to analyse the sufficiency of a
