Grounding; It is
defined as the conductive connection of the inactive parts in the electrical
facilities with the help of an electrode to the ground. One of the most
important elements to protect living things against dangerous step and touch
voltages is grounding systems. The most important parameter that changes the
grounding resistance is the value of the soil resistivity. In this study, the
effect of soil temperature and humidity on soil resistivity was observed with
the help of multiple regression method. Wenner method was used to measure soil
resistivity. A model based on multiple regression method is designed. This
model is designed as an interface in MATLAB GUI program. With the interface,
the user can easily calculate the soil resistivity at the desired heat and
humidity value by adapting the 10 measurements to be taken from any location.
