What Factors Affect Local Soil Conditions & its Resistivity?
Achieving a good earth mostly depend on the local soil conditions. The electrical resistance of a conductor is its opposition to the passage of an electric current through it. The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area: The constant is called the resistivity and is […]
