The purpose of this hands-on workshop is to develop a basic understanding of the capabilities of ETAP for short circuit analysis, protective device evaluation, coordination/ selectivity, and arc flash analysis. ETAP 153 workshop provides the skills, knowledge, and techniques necessary to become proficient in ETAP to conduct protective device coordination and arc flash studies. The workshop covers system modeling, operation, and evaluation of the elements during steady-state, and short circuit conditions. The evaluation process includes protection and coordination of protective devices.

An overview of the ETAP user interface will be covered including System Modeling (sources, branches, loads, protective devices, etc.), One-Line Diagram, Libraries (data and interface), 3-Dimensional Database (presentation, configuration, and engineering data), Sizing, Report Manager, Wizard, etc.

An ETAP computer workstation is provided for each attendee.
