Symmetrical Components
Assuming three unbalance voltage phasors, VA, VB and VC having a positive
sequence (abc). Using symmetrical components it is possible to represent each
phasor voltage as:
VA VA0 VA VA

The ground wires (above overhead TL) combined with the earth
works as a neutral conductor with impedance parameters
that effects the zero sequence components. Having a good grounding
(depends on the soil resistively), then the voltages to the neutral can
be considered as the voltages to ground.
