Dear friend If I do not have a copy I would not have adviced you. For a good engineer possession of such documents are essential.Read clause 14.1 of IEEE 80 . Sorry I am not supposed to reproduce here but I qute the contents below for your information.

"A good grounding system provides a low resistance to remote earth in order to minimize the GPR. For most transmission and other large substations, the ground resistance is usually about 1 Ω or less. In smaller distribution substations, the usually acceptable range is from 1 Ω to 5 Ω, depending on the local conditions."

Note .

Please be more polite in making coments that is the decency in a forem like this.
