Earthing Design
and
Design Verification

  • Detailed Analysis: We generate essential data on earth impedance, Earth/Ground Potential Rise (EPR), touch and step voltages, transfer voltages, Earth Potential differences, and conductor sizing. We also consider Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), along with induced voltages and currents on "Victim Circuits" like pipes and telecom lines.
  • Safety Assessments: We conduct comprehensive fence safety assessments and analyze gradient voltages to ensure your installations meet all safety standards.
  • Practical Design Advice: With a thorough understanding of the intricacies of installation and the financial impact of impractical designs, we focus on providing advice that is meaningful and practical. We aim to eliminate any unnecessary elements in your design.
  • Fault Current Distributions: We calculate fault current distributions using FCDIST/SPLITS or through direct measurements, ensuring precise and accurate data.
  • Third Party Impact Assessment: We perform third party impact assessments based on ZOI (Zone of Influence) and provide strategies to mitigate any potential risks.
  • Risk Assessment: Our services include a quantified risk assessment aligned with ISO and EN standards to prevent overdesign and wastage of resources.
  • Detailed Drafting: We provide comprehensive 3D/2D drafting using state-of-the-art AutoCAD and Navisworks software, aiding in better visualization and understanding of design concepts.
  • Installation Support and Consultancy: We stand by our clients at every step of the process. We witness, support, and provide consultancy on installation, commissioning, and tests to ensure the highest quality and efficiency.
