I assume you mean solidly grounded systems - not impedance grounded. Well, because it is a grounded conductor, the voltage to earth is zero. Under some conditions it doesn't have to be insulated at all
How does one size it? Look at 250, part X, particularly 250.182.A.2 (paraphrased): sufficient for the load imposed, but not less that 33 1/3% of the phase conductors - can go as low as 20% under certain conditions.
I have to admit, I've never seen a single phase line to neutral or Line to Line 4160V, or 13.8kv load. I can't think of a reason to solidly ground either one.
