Assuming that your 415V system is solidly grounded (check if supply Transformer is solidly griunded), calculate the L-G ground fault current. Next size your ground conductors to carry this current for 1 sec (check tripping time of your supply side breaker ). Once that is done, form a grid and connect all the consumers to this grid. Looking at the voltage, it appears that this is in Asia. Pl. check your local codes for the accepted practices for grounding. Anybody with 2-4 years experience in grounding should be able to guide you.
