The invention relates to an impulse
grounding resistance calculation method considering a
spark discharge effect. The method comprises the following steps: respectively determining relations among leakage current,
axial current, and node potential of a grounding body conductor; determining the leakage current,
axial current, and node potential of the grounding body conductor; determining an equivalent
radius of a grounding body conductor segment; determining axial resistance, self-
inductance, and frequency-dependent property of the grounding body conductor; determining self-resistance of the grounding body conductor over ground, mutual resistance among conductors, and time-variant characteristic; and determining the relation of the leakage current of the node of the grounding body conductor and the equivalent
radius of the conductor segment. An analytical method of combining an
electromagnetic field with a circuit is used, an
electromagnetic field method is used to solve conductor parameters, and a circuit method is used to solve
transient response. The method can adapt to grounding bodies in complex shapes, and can give comprehensive consideration to conditions which may occur in
spark discharge effect,
inductive effect, potential
shielding effect, and other impulse heavy current conditions. Compared with a conventional calculation method, the method is closer to
volt-
ampere characteristics of a grounding device under an
impact condition.
