INSPECTION AND TEST ON EARTH ELECTRODE

5.1 VISUAL INSPECTION

There were two main earthing systems, Electrical earthing and building structural earthing which
shall have bonded together in panel board. Transformer neutral earthing was connected to the
electrical earthing.

5.2 TEST ON EARTHING SYSTEM

Neutral earthing of the transformer was tested using Earth Megger tester. Resistance value of
electrical earthing system is 6.92 .

This resistances value of the earthing is satisfactory.

COMMENTS AND RECOMENDATIONS

As per the observations and tests all the HV side installations (As mentioned in the scope) are
satisfactory for energizing and continuous commercial operation.
