A typical CDEGS workflow involves three distinct stages, often managed via the or Right-of-Way management interfaces. HIFREQ is a full-wave electromagnetic field solver

✅ – Use a 2-layer soil model unless 3-layer clearly improves fit. ✅ Validate soil model – Run RESIS with multiple measurement traverses (different a-spacings). ✅ Use symmetry – Model quarter of the grid with symmetry boundaries to reduce solve time. ✅ Check GPR – If GPR exceeds 5 kV, consider soil enhancement or deep rods. ✅ Include surface layer – Add crushed rock (3 kV/m) to increase allowable touch voltage. ✅ TRALIN for current split – Don’t assume all fault current goes into your grid; overhead ground wires and cable sheaths carry significant current away. ✅ Iterate with IEEE Std 80 – CDEGS uses the same equations, but manual cross-check is wise for critical projects. ✅ – Use a 2-layer soil model unless
