Cable Sizing Software

Descripción general

ETAP Cable Sizing software provides various options which can be used for design requirements. These design requirements can be user-defined or automatically determined from load flow, short circuit, and protective device calculation results. 

ETAP cable sizing study module calculates optimal and alternative cable sizes for phase conductors based on the following criteria:

  • Load current
  • Voltage drop
  • Motor minimum starting voltage
  • Short circuit current
  • Protective device requirements
  • Harmonic Spectrum
  • Min Number of Conductors/Phase
  • Let-Through Energy Capability

Cable Sizing Software Key Features

  • Cable parameters and calculation results
  • Grid based interface for sorting, searching and filtering
  • Multiple filters for selection
  • Batch updating from library
  • Batch selection from library
  • Accessing to Model Forms
  • Individual or Consolidated Report
Cable sizing and ampacity for voltage drop, short circuit, motor start voltage, and protective devices.
