a. Resistance of Cable
The resistance of cable is calculated as follows:
Rc=0.0172 x (Lc : Csq)

Where:
Rc = resistance of cable (ohm-m)
Lc = length of cable (m)
Csq = cable cross section (mm2)

b. Total Resistance
Rtotal=Rg + Rc

Rtotal = total circuit resistance (ohm-m)

c. Transformer Rectifier DC Output Capacity Requirement

Total DC voltage rating of the power supplies to achieve the desire dc current output is
calculated by the following equation:
T/R Volt = Im x Rtotal x (1+SF) + Bemf
Where:
Im = current requirement (A)
Rtotal = Rg + Rc (ohm-m)
SF = extra space capacity (50%)
Bemf = back emf. (2.0volts)
following formula:

Where:
Ra = resistance anode to backfill (ohm-m)
P = calcined petroleum coke breeze backfill resistivity (ohm-cm)
NA = number of anode
L = length of anode (feet)
d = diameter of anode (feet)

Rb = Resistance of calcined petroleum coke breeze backfill to soil and is calculated by

the following formula:

Where:
Rb = resistance backfill to soil (ohm-m)
Ps = soil resistivity (ohm-cm)
NA = number of anode
L = length of column calcined petroleum coke breeze backfill (feet)
d = diameter of column calcined petroleum coke breeze backfill (feet)
Inf = interference factor is safety factor + 1
