Popis: | Configuration of Grounding Grid is required for all currently proposed Fault Diagnosing methods of Grounding Grid if the configuration is unknown then Grounding Grid Configuration detection techniques are applied and all of these latest techniques further requires the oriented angle at which the grid is laid and if the orientation of the grid is unknown or incorrect then the calculated configuration will be misleading and incorrect and we will fail to diagnose the Grounding Grid Fault. In this paper Transient Electromagnetic Method approach is used for orientation detection of Unequally Spaced Grounding Grids which are categorized as complexed grids further classified as Unequally spaced grounding grids with a diagonal element at larger mesh, smaller mesh, or in both of these meshes. In TEM method Equivalent Resistivities and Magnetic Field Intensities are found at eight different points in a circular path of constant radius r to determine the size of meshes and the presence of conductors whether diagonal or not diagonal. Model Designing and Simulations are performed using COMSOL Multiphysics 5.4 software, values of Magnetic Field Intensities and EMF are derived from COMSOL Multiphysics 5.4 software and the EMF values are further called in a MATLAB code to run through a number of mathematical formulations and Equivalent Resistivity is obtained for all desired points. Obtained values of Equivalent Resistivity and Magnetic Field Intensities verifies the effectiveness of the proposed approach for orientation detection of complexed grounding grid. |
