Event Description

 

Discover How to Optimize the Entire Lifecycle of Your Electrical Systems with ETAP’s Comprehensive Portfolio

We invite you to participate in this event organized by ETAP Iberia, where we will explore how electrical engineering can benefit from digital twin technologies to improve the safety, reliability, and energy efficiency of electrical systems.

During the session, we will present how ETAP solutions enable engineering firms and companies to design, document, analyze, and operate electrical systems within a unified digital environment, ensuring complete data traceability and smarter, more consistent project management throughout the entire lifecycle.

In a context where electrical systems are increasingly complex and regulatory and operational requirements are more demanding, having an integrated platform that connects design with real-time operation has become a strategic factor. ETAP provides this digital continuity through the creation of an electrical digital twin—a virtual model of the installation that evolves in sync with the physical system.

Thanks to the integration of its solutions, ETAP enables you to:

  • Design and document electrical systems with precision, from schematics and electrical panels to complex networks, using SEE Electrical, facilitating standardization, documentation quality, and team collaboration.

  • Calculate, size, and verify installations according to international standards using Caneco, ensuring safety, selectivity, and reliability criteria from the earliest project phases.

  • Model, simulate, and analyze electrical networks of any scale with ETAP, validating their behavior under different operating conditions and critical scenarios.

  • Connect the digital model to real-time operation, integrating data from SCADA systems, PLCs, IEDs, and other devices to monitor system performance, stability, and status.

  • Optimize operation and maintenance, reducing costs and downtime, thanks to the digital twin’s ability to anticipate scenarios, assess risks, and analyze the impact of decisions before implementing them in the real environment.

The integration of design, calculation, and operation provides engineers with a clear advantage: working on a single, consistent, and continuously updated model, avoiding duplication, misinterpretation, and information loss throughout the system lifecycle. This approach facilitates smoother collaboration between engineering, operations, and maintenance teams and allows for more agile, safe, and efficient planning.

During this event, ETAP experts will showcase practical examples of how using the electrical digital twin, supported by Caneco, SEE Electrical, and ETAP, enables new levels of efficiency, safety, and sustainability in electrical projects across the industrial, infrastructure, and energy sectors.
