CONCLUSION/DISCUSSION
Increasing the value of soil resistivity will increase the total
flashover
To increase accuracy and efficiency
Use multiple value of earth resistance
Use the exact value of GFD rather use a default value for
the whole line
Distant of nearby object give a big impact to the change in a
total flashover
Increasing the elevation of the earth also will increase the
chance of the total flashover that occur to the tower
