Ground Grid Design has been specially developed in compliance with IEEE 80-1986/2000 , IEC TS 60479 and IS 3043-1986, for utility & industry to arrive at an economic & safe design of new grounding grids as also for checking adequacy of existing grids. User-friendly data entry and graphical 2-D plotting make G-GRID software an efficient tool that helps in analyzing earth potentials and enables engineers to choose a technically sound and economical design of grounding grid from a variety of options.
Salient features :
- Design of HV & EHV sub stations.
- Checking adequacy of existing/designed grounding systems
- Provision for both uniform and non-uniform (two Layer : derived from field measurements) soil models
- Calculation of ground potential rise (GPR) , tolerable shock currents based on IEEE or IEC Standards , depth of burial , step - touch - transferred potentials, bill of quantity(BOQ), costing, etc...
AutoCAD Interface is a utility to convert the MiPower® Network to AutoCAD and to plot the results obtained using the MiPower® applications on an existing AutoCAD diagram. By invoking Network option, conversion of MiPower® network to AutoCAD (.dxf file) file can be done. Results option helps the user to plot power system study results obtained from MiPower® on AutoCAD network (.dxf file) which is having the ZZcodes.
ASLG is a utility to generate the single line diagram of the electrical system. Input to ASLG is the MiPower database file for the particular electrical system.
- Easy creation of network after entering the data in the database manager.
- Presenting network in parts.
DC Network Solution is a module to analyze the DC networks. The output of the program is the currents flowing in the network and the voltages at the nodes, which is computed based on the network topology, the resistances of the branches and the source in the network.
Battery sizing is a study function to determine the number of cells and cell size of the battery for a designated duty cycle. The number of cells is determined to satisfy the maximum system voltage during the battery charging period and minimum system voltage during battery discharging period. The number of cells/string is determined to provide sufficient power to the load cycle considering the minimum system voltage and minimum operating temperature. It also considered different factors that affect the battery performance, such as design margin, aging compensation, initial capacity, etc.
In this module an option is provided for the user to view the COMTRADE files both in numerical and graphical way.
The COMTRADE viewer reads the .DAT file and .CFG file for the inputs and it displays the samples both in numerical as well as graphical format. The data display offers a high-resolution graphical interface for displaying, analyzing and manipulating analog and digital channels of an oscillography record or a periodic load file. Displayed channels are marked, zoomed, numerically processed and summarized.
