Abstract

In the various designing steps of a grounding grid, the grids are gradually chosen by the designer according to his experience. A method for choosing, in a quite automatic way, the various grids and so for speeding up the designing process is given in this paper. The method is based on the determination of the maximum touch voltages, these being calculated by resorting to a genetic algorithm carried out by the Authors. Moreover, the building cost of the grounding grid is optimized thanks to the “Traveling Salesman” algorithm.
