PhysElec Solutions provided consultancy services for a major new hospital in Melbourne. This $1.5 billion project is due for completion in 2025. Our consultants conducted thorough desktop work, including earthing and lightning protection design, and on-site work, including soil resistivity tests and current injection testing. The post-installation current injection testing confirmed system performance regarding impedance and earth potential rise, and step, touch and transfer voltages across the site.

Much work is going on in Queensland’s rail sector and we have been involved in carrying out commissioning tests of some switchyard earth grids as well as lightning protection assessments. The current injection testing carried out was very difficult due to the built-up nature of the surrounding areas, the interference and contamination effects of which had to be estimated and removed with CDEGS software modelling.
