Can anyone advice me on how to take in the effect of Ground Enhansing Material (GEM) used in Electrical Earthing to reduse the earth resistance? in all the suppliers specification they only mension the GEM reduse the soil resistance drastically? so should i consider 1/5th,ro 1/10th or 1/100th of the given soil resistance?

or should i just consider the whole earth as a earth mat covering the full area coverd by GEM?
