Überblick

The Ground Grid Systems module enables engineers to quickly and accurately design and analyze ground protection. Flexible design methodologies allow for quick auto-designed layouts or very detailed schemes. High efficient multi-core parallel calculation allows fast analysis of irregular large-scale renewable applications. Color-coded graphical plots provide impressive results.

Soil Analysis tools allow automatic generation of a two-layer soil model from soil measurement data, based on the Wenner four-pin method.

    How to perform Short Circuit and Ground Grid Analysis with ETAP software

    How to perform Short Circuit and Ground Grid Analysis with ETAP software

    Learn how to determine optimal cable sizes, physical attributes, and maximum ampacity using ETAP’s Underground Raceway System module, ensuring that cables in duct banks or directly buried are operating within their maximum potential capacity. The advanced graphical interface allows for design of cable raceway systems to meet existing and future needs by using precise calculations to determine the required cable sizes, physical capabilities, and maximum derated capacity / ampacity. In addition, transient temperature analysis computes temperature profiles for cable currents, reducing the risk of damage to cable systems under emergency conditions. All cable steady-state temperature calculations are based on the Neher-McGrath Method and the IEC 60287 Standard.
