Motor Starting Analysis Software

ETAP Motor Starting Analysis software enables engineers to calculate motor acceleration time and the voltage impact of motor starting on electrical power systems. The motor acceleration module is fully capable of starting individual motors or transitioning an entire electrical power system to another state.

Key Features

• Dynamic motor acceleration
• Static motor starting
• Voltage flicker
• Motor & load dynamic models
• Conventional reduced voltage starters & soft starting devices
• Multi-sequence starting
• Load & generation transitioning
• Comprehensive alert & warning
• Motor operated valve (MOV) simulation

Capabilities

• Accelerate / stop multiple motors
• Create unlimited sequence of events
• Voltage impact of motor starting
• Compare the response from various motor starters
• Simulate load ramping of starting motor
• Transition loading of entire system
• Vary generator / grid operating parameters
• Visualize results with extensive alerts & warnings
• Simulate transformer LTCs / voltage regulators
• Simulate MOVs with five operating stages
