ground system testing
(OP)
Does anyone have any experience locating faulted (broken) ground wires on a primary ground system of a good size multi building plant site?
I mean about one million sq ft. total. the grid doesn't extend across that area but for each building only. There are about 10-15 structures. The primary voltage is 27.5Kv.
Any sugestions are helpful.
Thanks,

RE: ground system testing
I hear you saying I need a TDR meter of sorts to locate/trace the ground cables. Thats fine, I can do that. I have access to the grounding layout plans as well. However I've heard that using a meggar instrument to test the resistance at different corners of the one building you can find out also where the break may be. ( I don't have access to a TDR meter at the moment but I do a ground resistance tester).
