Abstract :
A computer program is presented for designing the shielding systems of substations. The program is based on the most up-to-date version of the electrogeometric model (EGM). The calculation method is made free from the conservatism of some earlier versions of the EGM by introducing rational revisions. Shielding designs for typical layouts are also presented
