Abstract

Several basic facts about the effects of steel conduits in A.C. power systems are reviewed to show that the geometry of a grounding path may have a greater effect on its effectiveness as a ground return path than its D.C. resistance. Data are presented on the effect of ?? E.M.T. conduit and No. 10 conductors in tests simulating regular room wiring under ground fault conditions.
