Abstract :
Expressions are suggested for assessing the maximum step-voltages and associated parameters of combined grid-multiple rods ground electrodes buried in uniform soil. The expressions proposed are successfully verified by comparison to exact computer calculations performed for a wide set of square and rectangular ground grids reinforced by ground rods distributed around the grid perimeter and within the grid
