Commercial license goes through an intensive verification and validation process prior to each release.
ETAP Advantage adds the performance reports and Verification & Validation (V&V) documentation that may be required for non-nuclear companies. This documentation attests to ETAP being rigorously tested, verified and validated against field results, real system measurements, and hand calculations to ensure optimal technical accuracy. Receive full access to an in-depth exception listing of ETAP calculation accuracy, and a Verification & Validation Certification Letter certifying that ETAP employs a V&V program per the quality assurance standards and requirements. In addition, an installation test procedure is provided with each release to assist with your company’s internal software approval process.
The ETAP nuclear package is Operation Technology, Inc.'s premier offering. More than 93% of U.S. Nuclear generating plants have standardized on the use of ETAP. Electrical system design for Nuclear Utility Plants requires a tool that complies with the United States Code of Federal Regulation. ETAP nuclear customers receive Verified & Validated software on a regular basis (with a valid SMA), so facilities don't have to spend time and money on internal validation. Accordingly, engineers are able to use the latest version of ETAP with the newest features and powerful enhancements. In addition, engineers benefit from the ongoing QA audits by other facilities including NUPIC members.
ETAP offers an educational software package at a minimal cost for universities, colleges, and educational institutions. ETAP Academia Program provides instructors, university computer labs, and students access to the software for use educational purposes. Find out more about Power Lab™ licenses.
