Repair methods that are effective, efficient and in a narrow area are very important to reduce grounding or earthing values in a SUTT tower in the electrical system. A good grounding system that has a small grounding limit value for SUTT must be less than 10?. At the 150kV Bangil New Porong SUTT, it was found that the ground resistance value exceeded the standard, namely in the tower located on wet sand land. If the value of the grounding limit is large. Therefore, a counterpoise spiral gap method is needed to reduce the holding value in a narrow area at the 150kV SUTT Bangil ? New Porong. In this study, the PSCAD Power System Computer Aided Design software was used to simplify the simulation of the state of a lightning strike and to know before and before changes in the resistance values. Given a lightning current of 42kA and causing backflashover, because the crossarm voltage value is greater than the fire jump, which is 1800kV while the fire limit is 1781.52kV. It takes an additional 15 meter of grounding cable electrodes so that the value of the grounding resistance decreases by 0.59 ? from the original 10,77? and can reduce the voltage on the crossarm of the tower to 1643,6kV} }
