This paper presents a systematic approach of measurement, modeling and analysis of grounding system impedance in the field of lightning protection system and intelligent power equipments. The measurement and analysis system of ground impedance is based on a computer aided technique. The magnitude and phase of ground impedance were determined by the novel measurement and analysis using the revised fall-of-potential method. The ground impedances of the ground rod of 50 m long are considerably dependent on the frequency. The ground impedance is mainly resistive in the frequency range of 3-20 kHz. At higher frequencies, the reactive components of the ground impedances are no longer negligible and the inductance of the ground rod was found to be the core factor deciding the ground impedance. Although the steady-state ground resistance of the ground rod of 50 m was less than that of the ground rod of 10 m, the ground impedances of the ground rod of 50 m over the frequency range of more than 60 kHz were much greater than those of the ground rod of 10 m. Furthermore, the equivalent circuit model based on the measured data was proposed. and the calculated results were in approximately agreement with the measured data.

Ground impedance for the large grounding system is measured according to the IEEE Standard 81.2 which is based on the revised fall-of-potential method of installing auxiliary electrode at a right angle. When the auxiliary electrodes are located at an angle of $90^{\circ}$, the ground impedance inevitably includes the error due to earth mutual resistance. In this paper, in order to accurately measure the ground impedance of vertically-driven ground electrodes, error rates due to earth mutual resistance are evaluated by ground resistance and ground impedance measuring devices and compared with calculated values. As a result, the measured results are in good agreement with the computed results considering soil layer with different resistivity. The error rates due to earth mutual resistance decrease with increasing the length of ground electrode in the case that the ratio of the distance between the ground rod to be measured and the auxiliary electrodes to the length of ground electrode(D/L) is same. The ground impedance should be measured at the minimum distance between the auxiliary electrodes that will have an estimated measurement accuracy due to earth mutual resistance.

This paper presents the characteristics of transient and effective impulse impedances for deeply driven grounding electrodes used in soil with high resistivity or in downtown areas. The laboratory test associated with the time domain performance of grounding piles subjected to a lightning stroke current has been carried out using an actual-sized model grounding system. The ground impedances of the deeply driven ground rods and grounding pile under impulse currents showed inductive characteristics, and the effective impulse ground impedance owing to the inductive component is higher than the power frequency ground impedance. Both power frequency ground impedance and effective impulse ground impedance decrease upon increasing the length of the model grounding electrodes. Furthermore, the effective impulse ground impedances of the deeply driven grounding electrodes are significantly amplified in impulse currents with a rapid rise time. The reduction of the power frequency ground impedance is decisive to improve the impulse impedance characteristics of grounding systems.

최근 대형 건축물들은 접지그리드를 기반으로 한 공통접지방식을 채택하고 있다. 이러한 접지시스템의 성능평가는 접지저항만으로 불충분하므로 접지임피던스의 측정이 요구된다. 대형 접지시스템의 접지임피던스에 대한 측정 방법은 IEEE standard 81.2에 기술되었으나 세부적인 평가방법들은 제시되지 못한 상태이다. 본 논문은 15[m]$\times$15[m] 접지그리드에 대하여 수정된 전위강하법에 기반한 접지임피던스의 정확한 측정방법과 보조전극의 위치에 따른 도전유도 및 전자유도에 의한 측정오차를 기술한다. 그 결과 도전유도에 의한 오차는 보조전극의 거리가 늘어날수록 감소하였다. 전자유도에 의한 오차를 배제하기 위해서 전위측정선은 전류측정선과 90도를 이루어야 한다. 전위측정선과 전류측정선이 예각 또는 둔각을 이루었을 때 전자유도전압은 각각 + 또는 -를 나타내었다. 일반적으로 전자유도에 의한 오차는 예각에 비해서 둔각의 경로가 작게 나타났다.
