ETAP Studies for Electrical Analysis

Relay Coordination Study

Utilizing ETAP software to analyze and optimize relay coordination in electrical systems

We perform detailed relay coordination studies using advanced ETAP software to ensure protective devices operate in a precise, time-coordinated sequence. This minimizes equipment damage and power outages during faults.

The study involves:
  • Analyzing protection schemes and time-current characteristics (TCCs).
  • Adjusting relay settings to prevent unnecessary tripping of upstream devices.
  • Ensuring rapid fault isolation while maintaining overall system stability
  • This process enhances operational reliability, reduces downtime, and complies with international electrical protection standards.

Short Circuit Analysis

Conducting short circuit analysis to assess system performance under fault conditions.

Our short circuit analysis identifies the maximum and minimum fault currents that can occur in your electrical system under various operating conditions.

This includes:

  • Calculating fault levels for three-phase, line-to-line, and single-line-to-ground faults.
  • Evaluating breaker and fuse ratings to ensure they can safely handle fault energy.
  • Providing mitigation recommendations such as equipment upgrades or protection scheme modifications.
  • Helping prevent catastrophic equipment failures, ensure worker safety, and meet IEEE, IEC, and NEC code requirements.

Load Flow Analysis

Performing load flow analysis to evaluate power system operation and efficiency.

We conduct comprehensive load flow (power flow) studies to evaluate how electrical power is distributed across your network.

This includes:

  • Determining voltage levels, power factor, and load distribution across all buses.
  • Identifying overloaded equipment and areas of high losses.
  • Recommending solutions such as transformer tap changes, capacitor bank placement, or feeder reconfiguration.
This analysis improves system efficiency, reduces operational costs, and ensures stable voltage levels across the network for continuous, uninterrupted operation.

Arc Flash Study

Carrying out arc flash studies to ensure safety and compliance in electrical installations

Our arc flash studies are designed to protect personnel and equipment from dangerous electrical energy releases.

This involves:

  • Calculating incident energy levels and arc flash boundaries using IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E methodologies.
  • Determining the correct level of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for each location.
  • Providing clear arc flash warning labels for all affected equipment.
  • Offering training and recommendations to reduce arc flash hazards, such as improved maintenance practices or engineering controls.
  • Ensuring compliance with global safety regulations and creating a safer working environment for electrical personnel.
