ETAP
5.0 Offers New Wizard Features |
|
ETAP
5.0 includes a time saving project management tool
known as the ETAP Wizard, which enables you to record
and automatically run hundreds of different studies
at any time. The ETAP Wizard consists of a Scenario
Wizard, a Study Wizard,
and a Project Wizard.
|
|
Scenario
Wizard
Every project file contains a Scenario Wizard. Scenarios
are created and recorded in the Scenario Wizard and can be
run individually at any time. A project may have an unlimited
number of scenarios. Scenarios are composed of the following
parameters:
- Presentation
(One-Line Diagram, UGS, CSD, etc.)
- Configuration
- Data
Revision (Base or Revision Data)
- Analysis
Type (Load Flow, Short-Circuit, etc.)
- Study
Type (Line-to-Ground Fault, Dynamic Motor Acceleration,
Frequency Scan, etc.)
- Study
Case (Solution Parameters such as Loading Categories,
Generation Categories, Diversity Factors, Alert
Settings, etc.)
- Output
Report Name
When
a scenario is executed in a project, it will automatically
create an output report or overwrite the existing
report of the same name. |

ETAP
Star Sequence-of-Operation |

Device
Coordination Via One-Line Diagram
With ETAP
Star, not only can you work with the time-current curves,
you can also determine the operating time of protective devices
simply by placing a fault on the one-line diagram. The sequence
of operations are automatically calculated and listed in
an Event Viewer, which is dynamically linked with the one-line
diagram. This new one-step concept utilizes the intelligent
one-line diagram and performs a complete set of actions to
determine the operation of all protective devices. This includes
internal shifting (normalizing) of each time-current characteristic
curve based on the individual fault contribution level. |

Star
Sequence-of-Operation:
- Graphically
place a fault anywhere on the one-line diagram
- Automatically
calculate and display the fault current contributions on
the one-line diagram
- Determine
the operating time and state of all protective devices based
on the actual fault current contribution flowing through
each individual device
- Globally
view post fault actions and associated operating time via
a tabulated Event Viewer
- Graphically
examine the operation of protective devices via the one-line
diagram

ETAP
Star Sequence-of-Operation provides a system wide solution for
an accurate and realistic operating time and state of protective
devices, such as relay, fuse, circuit breaker, trip devices, contactor,
etc. The operation time is calculated for each protective device
based on its settings, time current characteristic, and interlocks
for a specified fault location and type. |
