System modeling
Modelling Earth Networks by Equivalent Electric Circuits. Application

The challenge of this section is to implement the modeling of grounding devices in the modeling of a real installation.

This installation contains not only earthing systems, but also loads of various types (motors, power electronics, transformers, etc.) connected (different types of wiring), as well as protection systems (lightning arresters, RCDs, etc.).

In order to offer a simulation of the complete system, we need a model for each component of the system.

First of all, in this section, we focus on the modeling of all the grounding devices in a real installation, in order to determine the impact of couplings between them. This will enable us to conclude whether or not it is possible to create...
