AB  - Purpose– Reliable grounding is an important condition for the stable operation of substations and cathodic protection is one of the electrochemical protection technologies for substation grounding grids. The purpose of this paper is to consider the design proposal, installation, construction requirements and monitoring methods for Hunan 220 kV substation grounding grid.Design/methodology/approach– This paper treated Hunan 220 kV substation grounding grid as a research object. The physical and chemical data of three soil samples were measured, German DIN50929 evaluation criteria were used to assess its corrosion and a sacrificial anode cathodic protection design was selected, based on advanced concepts.Findings– The design proposal, installation, construction requirements and monitoring methods for the 220 kV substation grounding grid were clearly explained and recommended for implementation.Originality/value– This paper has some guidance on design ideas and the selection method for substation sacrificial anode cathodic protection.
