High Resistance Grounding (HRG) low-voltage design guide
Where continuity of service is a high priority, high-resistance grounding can add the safety of a grounded system while minimizing the risk of service interruptions due to grounds.
How to Design System Grounding in Low Voltage Electrical Systems
The maximum value allowed for the ground connection resistance depends on the equi-potentiality conditions of the frames of the LV network (its system grounding).
