Introduction The soil dataset includes multi-layer soil resistivity values for geographic locations near Grid and Primary substations. This data can be used in substation earthing system design. For further information on earthing refer to UK Power Networks' earthing standard EDS 06-0001 available from our website https://g81.ukpowernetworks.co.uk/. Please send any enquiries related to the dataset to earthingenquiries@ukpowernetworks.co.uk. Methodological Approach Soil data is uploaded from UK Power Networks' data warehouse. Site Functional Locations (FLOCs) are used to associate soil data to Key characteristics of active Grid and Primary sites — UK Power Networks Quality Control Statement Quality Control Measures include: Verification steps to match features only with confirmed functional locations. Manual review and correction of data inconsistencies. Use of additional verification steps to ensure accuracy in the methodology. Assurance Statement The Open Data Team has checked to ensure data accuracy and consistency.
