Hello people, recently I've come across fitting an earth rod and the Ze reading I got was 77.4, is this acceptable and in range? Also what are the maximum Zs readings for TT systems?
 
BS7671 suggests 200 ohms to be stable. NICEIC say 100. you will be relying on RCD for fault protection, and the max. Zs in the case of a 30mA RCD is 1667. with a figure of 77, though, i would be looking to fit longer screwde together rods.
