Electrical earthing design surge protection relies on accurate determination of soil resistivity down the vertical soil profile. The study investigated soil resistivity of a rocky region in Ile-Ife, Nigeria, were wenner method claimed to be failed. Pole-pole and Schlumberger electrode configurations method were deployed and electrical resistivity (ER) methods involving both horizontal profiling (HP) and Vertical Electrical Resistivity (VES) using an intelligent machine – ABM 300 C. Measurements were made along seven traverses to revealed soil resistivity variation in the region. Forty-eight VES stations were occupied along the traverse using the Schlumberger array with electrodes spacing of (AB/2) varying from 1 to 60 m. The vertical electrical soundin... view moreĀ»
