Zusammenfassung:An extended analysis of ground impedance measurement using the fall-of-potential method will be presented. An interesting curve that represents the exact locations of the potential probe when the potential and current probes are in different directions is obtained for the first time. Curves representing measurement error are also presented for the case when the potential probe is placed in locations where the correct ground impedance cannot be measured. A similar analysis for ground impedance measurements in multilayer soils is also discussed. The study presented in this paper has extended the theory of the conventional fall-of-potential method and the results obtained can serve as a practical guide for ground impedance measurements made using this method.
