GIS System Interface

The GIS system interface automatically generates electrical one-line diagrams with the corresponding geographical maps of power generation, transmission, and distribution systems.

Electrical system data is synchronized from GIS into ETAP thereby maintaining the relationship between them.

The results are displayed on one-line diagrams and geographical maps providing a seamless view of the power system within ETAP.

PSMS can track and record unusual activities with event logging and alarming tools. This provision allows for early detection and announcement of problems before a critical failure takes place.

Changes in system information are displayed graphically and logged. The calculated results are compared with metered parameters to provide pop-up alarms for equipment with missing and out-of-range data.

Annunciate local & system-wide alarms
Warnings based on equipment ratings
Alarm priority setting & event triggering
Annunciate out-of-range measurements
Graphical, tabulated, & audible annunciation
Predict abnormal conditions & critical failures
