Evaluación de un sistema de puesta a tierra de la Subestación el Bosque

Abstract

The project analyses the effectiveness of the grounding system at the El Bosque substation and determines the feasibility of constructing a new grounding structure on an adjacent site. In summary, various grounding system construction methods, their components and essential formulations for designing a grounding network for medium and high voltage installations are discussed. The aim is to improve the safety of the substation. To do this, the Wenner method is employed with the Geotest Amprobe GP-2 device and the CYMGrd software is used. The study also details how the different resistivities of soils with various physical properties were obtained. The normative reference for this project is IEEE Std. 80-2013.
