Conclusion
This research describes the development of software named
Grounding System Analyzer that can be used for the design
of substation grounding systems. It is capable of analyzing
performance of grounding system located in uniform soils
with the help of rigorous analysis method.
Sample problem has been solved with this software.
Comparison of results obtained using this software with that
given by GGS Module of ETAP validates the performance of
this software.
28
Future Planning
The software developed gives the analysis of uniform single
layer soil only. So in future the software can be developed for
the analysis for grounding system in the multi layer soil.
This software analyzes the grounding system with equally
spaced grounding grid. In future, software can be designed
which can analyze unequally spaced grounding grid.
Fault current calculation module also can be added in future.
