his study aims to investigate how the electrical-resistivity of different soils and grounding enhancement-materials is influenced by water-content and the dehydration under ambient and high-constant temperatures. The used enhancement-materials were extracted from surrounding wastes in Egyptian desert. First, waste enhancement-materials, their developed-mixture and soil samples were prepared for experimental testing. The contact-resistance between soil and enhancement-material was measured by using a designed soil-box. It was observed that adding a wood-ash as an interface-layer between the soil and enhancement-materials decreased significantly the contact-resistance. The developed-mixture and wood-ash demonstrated highest water-content retention when compared against the other enhancement-materials. This maintains their resistivity values low to serve for grounding purpose. The wood
