    The document calculates the number of plate and pipe earthing required based on soil resistivity, short circuit current, and other factors. It determines that 119 copper plates arranged in parallel are needed, with a total earthing resistance of 2.4666 ohms. It also finds that 60 cast iron pipes in a hollow square arrangement are required, with a total earthing resistance of 0.5135 ohms and a buried earthing strip providing additional resistance of 0.1160 ohms.
