XGSA FD

Analyze EM Fields & Coupling in the Frequency Domain

XGSA FD models electromagnetic fields and coupling between overhead and buried conductors, rails, pipelines and cables across frequency. Evaluate induced voltages/currents, magnetic field compliance, and mitigation effectiveness with realistic soil and return paths.


Frequency-Domain Capabilities

What you can do with XGSA FD

Quantify interference, induced effects and EM exposure to inform safe routing and bonding.

EM Fields & Exposure

  • Magnetic/ electric field assessment above/below ground
  • Profiles and maps for substations, plants & rail corridors
  • Comparison with ICNIRP / EN exposure limits

Coupling & Interference

  • Induced voltages/currents in pipelines, rails & telecoms
  • Conductive, inductive and capacitive coupling paths
  • Effect of bonding, shields, return conductors & spacing

Mitigation & Reporting

  • Shielding, rerouting, additional bonds and returns
  • Compliance summaries with worst-case scenarios
  • Engineering plots for documentation & approvals

Scope & Technical Coverage

AreaDetails
Modelling Frequency-domain solution with ground-return; mutual coupling among overhead lines, underground cables, rails, pipelines; realistic bonds, screens and terminations.
Use Cases Rail electrification & stray currents, pipeline interference, corridor co-location, plant EM exposure, HV/OHL–cable interactions, telecom co-routing.
Inputs Conductor geometry & routing, multilayer soil, load spectra or operating cases, bonding schemes, separation/clearances, shielding strategies.
Outputs EM field maps/profiles, induced V/I, transfer potentials, screening effectiveness, and compliance indicators versus ICNIRP/EN limits.
Integration Complements GSA/GSA FD for earthing, XGSA TD for time-domain studies, and NETS for multi-conductor networks to deliver end-to-end assessments.
