    In this paper, primary focus is the computation of grounding parameters essential for both regular and irregular grounding grid designs. The key grounding parameters under examination encompass ground resistance, surface voltage, touch voltage, and step voltage. To fulfill this objective, a specialized software tool is introduced, consisting of a computer program. This software is underpinned by mathematical models specifically engineered to facilitate the precise determination of grounding parameters tailored to varying soil structures. Our approach entails a rigorous comparative analysis, wherein the outcomes generated by our methodology are compared with existing methods documented in the literature.
