Abstract :
Grounding system behavior under transient condition is investigated. Transmission line approach has been chosen to simulate the buried grounding system under lightning condition. Different models of buried grounding grids have been studied under lightning conditions. Sensitivity analysis of soil parameters and grounding grid dimensions have been studied to understand the effect of each parameter on the performance of grounding systems subjected to lightning.
