### Our Capabilities

- **Soil Modelling & Design Inputs:** Reviewing soil test data and modelling scenarios to establish a defensible basis for earthing design.
- **EPR and Step/Touch Assessments:** Analysing earth potential rise and step/touch voltages, with practical design adjustments to achieve safe outcomes.
- **Standards-Based Compliance:** Designing to relevant standards and guidance (e.g., AS 2067, AS/NZS 3000, IEEE 80, ENA guidance) and specific client requirements.
- **Lightning Protection Engineering:** Designing lightning protection to AS 1768 using appropriate assessment methods, with grounded, buildable detailing.
- **EMF / Interference Considerations:** Assessing EMF and interference risks where required and incorporating mitigation into layouts and connections.
