The lower the resistance you get in the grounding/earth system the better. In offshore a resistance from 1-2 ohm is a good earthing system. In Onshore a miximum of 10ohm is acceptable.
megger
footing resistance is that resistance which could not harm human body while touching tower...and it is calculated by earth resistance tester
A good number on a megger test should be around 2 megohms.
Every electrical system should be earthed to get a low resistance path for dissipation of current into the earth. Major accidents take place because of improper equipment earthing or leakage current. Earth fault current directly affect the human safety. Earthing should be measured at regular intervals so as to ensure that the resistance of the earth is maintained minimum. Its main purpose is to minimize the risks of fire and shock hazards.
Reverse resistance should be infinite.
insulation resistance can be measured by means of megger, with built in d.c generator. It is measured between the conductor and the earth. earth resistance can be measured by means of earth resistance tester. For good effective earthing, th earth resistance should be of order 0.5 ohm

what is the resistance value of a healthy earth pit
You measure at a socket, you should measure well less than one ohm resistance between earth and neutral. .my answer: theoritically it is zero
The recommended resistance that one should strive to obtain is zero.
Resistance power of 20 amps indicate whether it is good or faulty.
since it is a good conductor
A normal ohmmeter (or multimeter with this feature) should do it.
Earth the Resistance - 2014 is rated/received certificates of: UK:15
Type your answer here... how to get ohm in earth pit
No, a good conductor has a low resistance.
Ohmeter connected both ends ground circuit. Usually this circuit very short with minimal resistance due to that. Do you have a good solid ground?
