This document provides calculations for determining the resistance of an earthing system using 20 copper electrodes. It lists the inputs such as the length and diameter of the electrodes, soil resistivity, and distance between electrodes. Based on these parameters, the resistance of the 20 electrodes was calculated to be 0.861456 ohms, which is less than the desired maximum of 1 ohm, indicating an effective earthing system design.
