Scripting & Study Automation using Python™

etapPy™ Python Scripting

ETAP-Python API & IDE - Create & Execute Python Scripts

Increased Productivity with Scripting & Program Automation in Python™

Python scripting is integrated into the ETAP power system analysis software to provide automation and extend reporting and plotting capabilities.

etapPy-Product

Efficiently perform batch analysis, automate running studies, retrieve project information, and create customized plots through Python’s built-in Integrated Development and Learning Environment (IDLE).

  • Integration of ETAP & Python Scripting
  • etapPy offers continuously-evolving modules designed for study automation and reporting.
  • Custom plots and reports can be produced from automated study results
