Multilayer Earth Resistivity Analysis with CDEGS software

EDS provides services for the multilayer soil analysis of earth resistivity with CDEGS-RESAP engineering software. CDEGS (Current Distribution, Electromagnetic Interference, Earthing and Soil Structure Analysis) is a powerful and high precision software package dedicated to soil resistivity and earthing safety analyses. The CEDGS-RESAP software package provides accurate results even in extreme conditions of soil resistivity.

We have worked with scores of clients across the sectors and have rich experience in dealing with a variety of issues in this field. We are passionate about providing our customers with innovative services which deliver tangible benefits for their businesses and installations.

We use below mentioned specialized designing software to build a multilayer earth resistivity model that will meet your performance objectives.

CDEGS - RESAP | Multilayer Soil Resistivity Analysis

Soil modelling is one of the most crucial aspects in electrical earthing system design and safety analysis. Soil resistivity modeling takes the guesswork out of electrical earthing design. In general, the soil resistivity changes both in horizontal and vertical direction. The multilayer soil model is often the most suitable for earthing system analysis. The number of required layers is in general site-dependent, the simplistic double layer soil model is adequate only in about the 20% of cases while in the remaining 80% of cases a model with three or more layers is required.

Correctly interpreted soil structures are essential for the analysis of earthing systems. A more accurate representation of the actual soil structure can be obtained by use of CDEGS-RESAP engineering software. The apparent resistance (V/I) data values were entered as input to the RESAP to determine equivalent horizontal multi-layered soils based on the site measurements. RESAP compares field data to apparent resistivities produced by different soil models, and automatically determines a soil structure yielding a closely matching electric surface response.

The end results are bespoke multilayer model of earth resistivity, which is based on EDS extensive experience of earthing system designing and analysis.
