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.
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
Key Features
