Since 1994, PowerEarth has delivered specialist electrical engineering services for Australia’s most demanding infrastructure, from rail and tunnels to power networks, defence, mining and renewables. We support clients across the full project lifecycle: master planning, feasibility, concept and detailed design, testing and commissioning.

Our work spans four core disciplines: earthing and electrolysis, lightning protection, power and electrical systems, and independent consulting, delivered by engineers who are among Australia’s most experienced users of CDEGS and industry-standard power system modelling tools.

EARTHING

PowerEarth are industry leaders in earthing design and testing. Our team uses CDEGS engineering software to support our earthing and electrolysis work.
