Introduction The project of earthing system is prepared in accordance with the requirements of the investor and Standard: IEEE 80 –2000 Guide for Safety in Substation Grounding. Specific resistance is calculated on the basis of measured values of soil resistivity. The earthing system is designed so that the allowable touch and step voltages do not be exceeded. The calculation is done using the software CDEG MultiGround TM SES - Safe Engineering Services & technologies ltd. Canada whose results are shown in Appendices. The result shows that the touch and step voltages are within the permissible limits.
