Estudio de un sistema de puesta a tierra por medio de Software CYMGRD para aterrizar los equipos primarios de una subestación 20 MVA DE 69 /13.8 KV ubicada en el sector Los Bancos del cantón Yaguachi.

Abstract

The design and analysis of a grounding system for a 20 MVA electrical substation in the LOS BANCOS sector of the Yaguachi canton, which operates at 69/13.8 kV, are the subject of this study. The objective of the research is to model and optimize a landing system using CYMGRD software to offer effective protection against electrical faults and lightning strikes. A complete evaluation of the geotechnical characteristics of the terrain will be carried out to improve the system design. This will include accurate measurements of soil resistivity. To ensure that the system complies with relevant national and international standards, this evaluation will allow a variety of operating and fault conditions to be simulated. Simulation with CYMGRD will allow system performance to be modeled and tested in a variety of operational and failure scenarios, ensuring compliance with local and international regulations. This method will ensure adequate protection of equipment, safety of personnel, and continuity of electrical service. In addition, the study will analyze the effects of the grounding system in a nearby environment, considering possible repercussions over an extended time due to the study of the analysis.
