3-D Database Toolbar

ETAP organizes an electrical system into a single project. Within this project, ETAP creates three major system components:

Presentation - Unlimited, independent graphical presentations of the one-line diagram that represent design data for any purpose (such as impedance diagram, study results, or plot plan).

Configuration - Unlimited, independent system configurations that identify the status of switching devices (open and closed), motors and loads (continuous, intermittent, and spare), generator operating modes (swing, voltage control, reactive power control, power factor control) and MOVs (open, closed, throttling, and spare).

Revision Data - Base Data and unlimited Revision Data IDs that keep track of the changes and modifications to the engineering properties (for example, nameplate or settings) of elements.

1. Data Manager 2. Revision Data 3. New Presentation 4. Current Presentation 5. Current Composite 6. Configuration Manager 7. Configuration Status 8. Schedule Report Manager 9. Cable Manager

The Schedule Report Manager allows you to preview and print the input data, for elements shown on the Branch, Bus and Load pages, using the Crystal Reports formats.

The Cable Manager allows the “batch” management of all the cable data, as they appear in the Cable Editors of each cable. The Cable Manager shows cable data in a consolidated fashion in a grid; with the presence of intelligent filters, cables can be searched and grouped by their relevant parameters, thereby simplifying their engineering management. Cable Manager allows batch reporting and selecting from library.

System Toolbar

The System toolbar is a convenient and efficient method of switching between ETAP systems. When navigating from one ETAP system to another using this toolbar, ETAP will open the last accessed presentation for the selected system. For example, if you are switching from Network Systems to Star Systems, ETAP will check for an existing Star View. If Star Views exist, ETAP will open the last accessed Star View and make it the active window.

ETAP Wizards

ETAP includes time-saving project management tools called the ETAP Wizards, which allow you to record and run any study at any time. The ETAP Wizards include the Scenario Wizard, Study Wizard, and Project Wizard.

Using the ETAP Wizards, you will be able to combine the orthogonal tools (Presentations, Configurations, and Revision Data), study types, output reports, and study cases (the loading and generation system operation factors together with solution parameters) to perform a complete system study with the click of a button.

Scenario Wizard:

A scenario allows you to group all study options into one place.

Study Wizard:

Study Wizard enables you to sequentially group existing scenarios into study macros.

Project Wizard:

Project Wizard enables the user to group existing study macros into project macros.

Crystal Reports

®

ETAP uses the Crystal Reports program to generate output reports. Crystal Reports is a reporting tool with customizable report formats with full-color presentation-quality. ETAP provides a number of different report formats for various analyses, library data, and schedules.

Building a One-Line Diagram



To build or edit a one-line diagram in ETAP, you must be in Edit Mode. Click the Edit button on the Mode toolbar.



On the AC Edit toolbar, select a Power Grid (Utility) element by clicking on the Power Grid button. The cursor will change to the Power Grid icon when moving over the OLV. Click anywhere in the OLV to place a Utility on your one-line diagram.



By following the same procedure, insert the following elements until your OLV appears as follows:



You can stretch buses by placing the mouse pointer over either end of the bus, until a double arrow appears. Then click and drag to the desired length.





Now connect the elements in the one-line. Place the mouse pointer over the connection pin of

an element, and it will turn red. Then click and drag to the connection pin of another element. Follow this procedure to connect all the elements on the one-line. In the case of buses, the entire element graphic functions as a connection point. Notice that a node is automatically inserted when connecting the cable to the transformer.

☺Helpful Tips…

Double-clicking on an element button allows you to drop it more than once. When finished just press the Esc key.

☺Helpful Tips…

You can zoom in , zoom out , and zoom to fit page the OLV by clicking on the respective buttons located in the Project Toolbar.

Libraries

ETAP provides customized libraries for many devices for which typical, standard, and manufacturer information has been compiled. Additional devices may be added to each library through ETAP’s library editors. ETAP library files have the extension .lib and by default are located in the ‘Lib’ folder within the ETAP application folder. ETAP displays this path along with the name of the current library in the System Manager.

You may access library data through the Crystal Report format by clicking the Library button at the top of the screen and selecting Export.
