Soil resistivity is one of the most critical factors affecting earthing and grounding system performance and safety. In cold climates, the top-soil layers may be frozen during the winter or spring seasons, and resistivity may increase to as high as 10,000 Ω.m in the frozen soil layers. This can give rise to significant touch voltage hazards during an earth fault.
