The paper develops a general mathematical model for the analysis of the interconnected earthing systems. The mutual interacting of earthing systems through the soil, admittances of interconnecting ties as well as the emfs induced therein, due to fault currents, are taken into account. Various circumstances which can appear in actual conditions are discussed as special cases. An example from the practice illustrates the application of the method suggested and gives an idea on the effects of various parameters upon the current and voltage conditions at earthing systems.
Übersicht
Das Manuskript entwickelt ein allgemeines mathematisches Modell für die Analyse von verbundenen Erdungsanlagen. Der gegenseitige Einfluß der Erdungsanlagen durch den Boden, die Admittanzen von den Verbundleitern sowie die EMK, die in den Verbindungen von den Fehlerströmen induziert sind, werden in Rechnung genommen. Die verschiedenen Situationen, die in praktischen Bedingungen eintreten können, sind als spezielle Fälle des allgemeinen Modells betrachtet. Ein Beispiel aus der Praxis illustriert die Anwendung der vorgeschlagenen Methode und gibt eine Idee über die Einflüsse, die verschiedene Parameter haben können auf die Strom-Spannungs-Verhältnisse bei den Erdungsanlagen.
