Workshop Description

  • The purpose of this introductory 5-day hands-on workshop is to learn how to apply power system engineering knowledge in the modeling, design & analysis using ETAP software.
  • This workshop covers a range of ETAP functionalities used to design & solve various power system practical problems.
  • It starts from utilizing the full capabilities of the software for modeling & managing of the power systems to equipment sizing in steady state and short circuit conditions, motor acceleration scenarios, protection of the equipment, selectivity, & device coordination, arc flash assessment & mitigation, effects of harmonics in the system & sizing proper filters, and designing of the ground grids for substations.
  • This workshop will provide an overview of the fundamental differences between the latest IEEE 1584-2018 Standard and existing (2002) arc-flash method.  The discussion will include background and insights into the model development and validation since this is essential to understand how the new model combines empirical and arc-flash physical behavior. An analytical opinion on how an arc-flash incident energy study will change using the new method will be presented to educate engineers on the expected differences.
  • An ETAP workstation is provided for each attendee.

Who should attend

  • New ETAP users and power engineers who wish to increase their skills using the ETAP application to perform system studies
  • Current users seeking a refresher course
  • Knowledge of power system engineering concepts is highly recommended for those attending this workshop
