DC Arc Flash Analysis for BESS in ETAP 2024

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM UTC, 1 hour

Free Webinar

Webinar Description

Discover the groundbreaking enhancements for DC arc flash incident energy analysis for battery energy storage systems (BESS) in ETAP 2024. This webinar presents two cutting-edge features in ETAP 2024 that will redefine your approach to BESS Arc Safety:

The patented DC C-area in Time Current Characteristic (TCC) views feature. This innovation empowers protection engineers to pinpoint precisely whether incident energy (IE) levels meet design IE criteria during protection and coordination design.
The DC Arc Flash Transient Calculation, using IEC 61660 short-circuit currents. This breakthrough technology calculates a more precise IE by incorporating battery-specific parameters and operational conditions.

These powerful analysis features provided in ETAP 2024 will transform how you evaluate and mitigate DC arc flash risks in BESS, and elevate BESS safety!

You’ll learn how to:

Effortlessly ensure incident energy stays within acceptable limits for chosen PPE levels
Streamline protective device selection with even better optimization to minimize incident energy
Reduce overestimations by factoring in battery rising and decay time constants, along with dynamic conductor effects like erosion and elongation, which are applicable to DC arc flash events
Configure input parameters to take advantage of both of these features
