Abstract

Earthing designs are very critical for safe working and equipment reliability. Earthing designs are not always simple mathematical calculations and require advanced earthing calculation tools to solve complex field problems which are actually encountered at site. This paper deals with similar such problems, authors have done detail simulations to see the effect of multilayer soil model in advanced earthing design tool XGSlab® software to evaluate different potentials within field.
