Análisis de modelos de sistemas de puesta a tierra para diferentes electrodos y condiciones de suelos.

Abstract

At present, grounding systems are of the utmost importance to safeguard people's lives, as well as to protect electrical and electronic equipment. The function of a grounding system is to divert the current produced by electrical failures or weather events such as lightning. The characteristics of the soil where the grounding is to be built are decisive for the design. Programmed resistivity measurement method is Wenner. The present work develops a program based on the IEEE Std 80-2013 standard for the design of grounding system taking into consideration the type of soil on which one is working, if it is homogeneous or if there are two layers of soil. In addition, it allows you to choose the type of electrode you are going to work with. The program was carried out in the Matlab software using the extension GUI, it will fulfill the objectives and scope proposed in the present work, analyzing grounding systems in different scenarios and under different conditions.
