Soil Resistivity Testing

What is Soil Resistivity Testing

Soil resistivity testing is crucial for designing and installing effective earthing systems. It measures the ground’s ability to conduct electrical current, which is vital for ensuring the performance and safety of grounding systems. In the electrical power industry, understanding soil resistivity helps determine the design requirements of earthing systems, ensuring they can safely dissipate electrical faults into the ground.
