Introduction

The design of the Grid Gardu Main Gride System is a complex process that requires repeated calculations to ensure the results meet the IEEE 80-2013 standards. The challenges are getting bigger when the land has non-uniform characteristics, as in the Lapis Dua Land Model. The manual process that takes time and is prone to error encourages the need for computer-based computing systems to facilitate design. This study presents an innovative solution in the form of a grounding system application designed with LabVIEW software.

Background

The Grid Gardu Main Gride System is a critical component of the electrical grid, providing a safe and reliable path for fault currents to flow to the ground. The design of this system requires careful consideration of various factors, including the type of soil, the size and material of the conductors, and the resistance of the grid. The IEEE 80-2013 standard provides guidelines for the design of grounding systems, but the manual process of calculating the grid resistance and soil resistance can be time-consuming and prone to error.

Methodology

This study presents a computer-based application for designing the Grid Gardu Main Gride System. The application is designed using LabVIEW software and offers several advantages that simplify the design process. Users can choose the grid resistance calculation method that suits their needs, such as the Sverak, Laurent, and Schwarz methods. The determination of the diameter of the conductor is carried out by considering the constant of the conductor material in more detail. In addition, this application integrates the calculation of resistance parameters in the type of layer soil type with the substation ground design system.

Advantages of the Application

This application offers several advantages that simplify the design process. Some of the key advantages include:

  • Flexibility: Users can choose the grid resistance calculation method that suits their needs.
  • Accuracy: The application integrates the calculation of resistance parameters in the type of layer soil type with the substation ground design system.
  • Efficiency: The application allows users to directly observe the influence of each parameter change on design criteria.
  • Validation: The application is validated by comparing the results of its calculations with the IEEE 80-2013 standard.

Validation Results

The validation results show an average difference of 0.21% for calculating the parameter of the Grid substation design system and 1.81% for calculating the parameter of the Layer Model Type of Layer Model. This difference is not significant and does not affect the results of the design system as a whole.

Conclusion

This application is an effective and efficient tool for designing the ground substation grid system according to IEEE 80-2013 standards. This application not only facilitates the design process, but also increases the accuracy and speed of results. With the integration of various calculation methods and comprehensive parameter analysis skills, this application is ready to help professionals in the field of electricity in designing a reliable and safe grounding system.
