Cdegs Grounding Software Jun 2026

Below is a curated list of (via IEEE Xplore, ResearchGate, or university repositories) that are widely cited as "good" for understanding or proving CDEGS grounding capabilities.

Soil Modeling and Its Impact on Grounding Grid Performance Using CDEGS Authors: A. M. Abdullah, et al. Venue: International Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems (Elsevier) Why good: Explains how to derive a multi-layer soil model from Wenner four-pin measurements, then use CDEGS (MALZ or HIFREQ modules) to compute transient grounding impedance. cdegs grounding software

I’ve noticed a lot of projects moving toward simplified apps for grounding design. However, whenever we deal with multi-layer soil structures or AC interference on pipelines, I still find myself turning to the full CDEGS suite (specifically MALZ and RESAP). Below is a curated list of (via IEEE

: Analyzes low-frequency grounding systems, calculating safety parameters like Ground Potential Rise (GPR), touch voltage, and step voltage. Abdullah, et al

Analysis of Grounding Systems Under Lightning Surges Using CDEGS Authors: L. Grcev, S. Grceva Venue: IEEE Transactions on Electromagnetic Compatibility Why good: Shows how CDEGS’s HIFREQ module solves frequency-dependent grounding behavior, including soil ionization (via an equivalent model). A benchmark for transient grounding papers.
