Abstract :
The practical measurement of the resistance to earth of a very small symmetrical electrode is a fairly simple procedure and does not call for a great deal of knowledge of the fundamentals involved. However, as such electrodes increase in size and become more complex in their shape, there is greater need for a better understanding of the basic principles.
