TT is where the earth is derived by an electrode sunk into the earth as opposed to from the suppliers cables, this results in a high ELFI, typically about 120ohms (as opposed to a max or 0.7 or 0.35 for the other two methods) this allows a max current of 230/120 = 1.9A to flow, which means that if an earth fault developed, its not going to be able to trip a breaker, so we protect agaisnt earth faults using RCDs instead, typically the main rcd in a TT system is 100ma, the RCD is sized so that earth leakages will trip the RCD before they raise the touch voltage above 50V (25V in case of farms, etc), multiplying the resistance of the earth path by the operating current of the RCD will give this voltage, and it can be seen that for example if you used a 30ma rcd, you have a max value of 1666ohms, though it is rescommended that it should be kept below 200 ohms, as anything above that value is deemed to be unstable
