Protecting People, Equipment & Infrastructure from Electrical Faults
Earthing design is a vital component of electrical engineering. It ensures that high-voltage assets, industrial facilities, and commercial developments remain safe, compliant, and protected against electrical faults. A well-designed earthing system safely dissipates fault currents into the ground, preventing dangerous voltages from endangering workers, equipment, and the public.
We specialise in earthing system design and modelling for private high-voltage networks, including those found in:
- Hospitals and healthcare facilities
- Industrial plants and substations
- Mining operations and remote sites
- Embedded networks in residential and commercial developments
We use advanced techniques and software to assess electrical fault risks and design grounding systems that meet Australian safety standards. This includes step and touch voltage analysis, fault current dissipation modelling, and surge and lightning protection integration.
Whether creating new earthing systems or upgrading existing ones, our focus is ensuring maximum safety and reliability while mitigating operational risks.
