Abstract :
The paper proposes a method for simplified analysis of earthing systems based on the aggregation of elements with (approximately) equal leakage current densities into equivalent single electrodes. The method makes possible a fair evaluation of earthing system performances with considerable savings of computer time and memory. The applicability of the method is checked for afew sample earthing systems.
