Information regarding conductor segmentation

In most cases, the accuracy of the main algorithm results is improved when the original conductors are subdivided into smaller conductors called segments. Part of the subdivision process is performed automatically by the program, while the rest of the process is controllable to a degree.

Conductors are subdivided according to the following process:

1. The original conductors are automatically subdivided at a soil layer boundary.

2. Each conductor segment is further subdivided at its points of intersection with other conductors.

3. An advanced segmentation algorithm further divides the conductors (where necessary) to achieve the greatest accuracy by the most efficient means.
