Coefficient of Grounding (COG) IEEE
The ratio, ELG/ELL (expressed as a percentage), of the highest root-mean-square (rms) line-to-ground power-frequency voltage ELG on a sound phase, at a selected location, during a fault to ground affecting one or more phases to the line-to-line power-frequency voltage ELL that would be obtained at the selected location with the fault removed. ( ELL= line to line voltage ELG= Line to Ground Voltage)
