Earth ground resistance.

There is not one standard ground resistance

threshold that is recognized by all agencies.

However, the NFPA and IEEE have recommended

a ground resistance value of 5.0 ohms

or less.

The NEC has stated to "Make sure that system

impedance to ground is less than 25 ohms

specified in NEC 250.56. In facilities with sensitive

equipment it should be 5.0 ohms or less."

The Telecommunications industry has

often used 5.0 ohms or less as their value for

grounding and bonding.

The goal in ground resistance is to achieve

the lowest ground resistance value possible

that makes sense economically and physically.

What should the resistance on a 30 amps triple pole contactor measure?

If the coils pulling the contactor in, you should have negligible resistance. If the contactor is not in, then you should have open circuit. Unless your measuring the resistance of the coil, in which case it will roughly be around 30ish ohms im guessing, depends on the coil voltage


How can you measure internal resistance of car battery?

You measure it indirectly using a known load resistance and measuring supplied current. Loading of the ammeter should be known as well, and the load resistance should be made relatively small to get accurate results.


Where should the fulcrum be placed in a first class lever to make the resistance easiest to move?

The fulcrum should be placed closer to the resistance to make it easier to move when using a first-class lever. By positioning the fulcrum closer to the resistance, you can gain a mechanical advantage, requiring less effort to move the resistance.
