XGSLabs Earthing/Grounding Solution

XGSLab is one of the most powerful electromagnetic software simulation tools for power, earthing, grounding and lightning protection systems and the only earthing design software on the market that takes into account International (IEC/TS 60479-1:2005), European (EN 50522:2010) and American (IEEE Std 80-2000 and IEEE Std 80-2013) Standards in earthing, grounding system analysis.

Why? XGSLab Simulation Software - Strengths

  • EASY: A program with an intuitive interface. Very easy, even for beginners. Users expert with competitors’ tools can directly use XGS.
  • WORLDWIDE: The only software in the market that takes into account International (IEC), European (EN) and USA (IEEE) standards.
  • VALIDATED: Accuracy validated since 1990 by comparison with analytical cases, published research, field measures, and similar programs.
  • CROSS DISCIPLINE: A complete tool for the simulation of Power, Grounding and Lightning Systems.
  • ADVANCED: Based on full-wave PEEC model and suitable for general applications in a wide frequency range, with arbitrary conductors arrangements and many soil models, including multilayer.
  • OPEN: Frequency-dependent self and mutual impedances can be exported to EMTP® to study the dynamic behaviour of earthing/grounding systems. Layout data can be imported/exported from/to AutoCAD®. MATLAB® or EXCEL® can read Numerical output.
  • POWERFUL: A powerful code that uses parallel computing meaning fast processing times, so less time waiting for anwers.

XGSLab Software includes the modules:

  • GSA (GROUNDING SYSTEM ANALYSIS) for basic application with underground systems
  • GSA_FD (GROUNDING SYSTEM ANALYSIS in the FREQUENCY DOMAIN) for general applications with underground systems
  • XGSA_FD (OVER AND UNDERGROUND SYSTEM ANALYSIS in the FREQUENCY DOMAIN) for general applications with overhead and underground systems
  • XGSA_TD (OVER AND UNDERGROUND SYSTEM ANALYSIS in the TIME DOMAIN) for general applications with overhead and underground systems
  • NETS (NETWORK SOLVER) to solve full meshed multi conductors networks

XGSLab GSA, GSA_FD, XGSA_FD, XGSA_TD,

The modules GSA, GSA_FD, XGSA_FD and XGSA_TD integrate the module SRA (Soil Resistivity Analysis) and XGSA_TD integrates also the module FA (direct/inverse Fourier Analysis).

The application field of these four modules is wide because they are based on the PEEC (Partial Element Equivalent Circuit) method, a numerical method for general applications powerful and flexible and perfectly suitable for engineering purposes.

This method allows the analysis of complex scenarios including external parameters such as voltages, currents and impedances.

The implemented PEEC method solves the Maxwell equations in full-wave conditions taking into account the Green functions for propagation, the Sommerfeld integrals for the earth reaction, the Jefimenko equations for electric and magnetic fields and moving from the frequency to the time domain by means the Fourier transforms. 

These four modules can import data from “dxf” files, and also export data and results in “dxf” files with full interactivity with CAD tools.

XGSLab NETS

The module NETS is based on the phase components method and integrates specific routines for the calculation of the parameters of lines, cables and transformers.

All modules are integrated into an “all in one” package and provide professional numerical and graphical output useful to investigate any electromagnetic greatness.

All algorithms implemented in XGS are highly efficient in terms of computation speed and have been validated and tested by many Customers in the world.

Everything possible has been done to enhance user-friendliness and increase productivity to this powerful tool.

XGS is easy to use by engineers who need not be necessarily experts in the specific field, and moreover accurate, stable and fast.
