In most cases, SCCAF (Short Circuit Coordination Arc Flash) studies are done by engineering firms, which then submit reports to facility owners. The challenge is that those reports tend to be lengthy (up to 5,000 pages), not engaging, and hard to grasp for facility personnel. ETAP's powerful graphical and presentation tools can help make those reports livelier, informative, and more engaging. This case study will discuss how you can summarize lengthy power studies reports within just a 30-minute interactive meeting, and highlight how the final ETAP model can be used, with its powerful graphical interface and presentation tools, including Data Blocks, Multiple Presentation layers, Sequence of Operations, and Arc flash calculator.

The escalating demand for fleet electrification across the U.S. presents a significant challenge to existing distribution infrastructure, necessitating EV charging management strategies to meet electrical energy demands and address power quality issues. Level 2 and Level 3 EV chargers, equipped with power electronic converters and PWM technology, generate non-sinusoidal currents, exacerbating power quality concerns at individual sites. The effect of rapid voltage changes (RVC) introduced by this equipment is also discussed. This case study features insights and observations from field-recorded measurements of unbalanced (per-phase) harmonic distortions at a site with over 300 electric van charging stations. The unbalanced harmonic analysis (UBHA) conducted by Eradeh Power Consulting using ETAP Software for the site, revealed distortion limits being exceeded for individual phase currents and voltages as well as power distribution equipment rating overloads (such as transformer K-rating and cable thermal limits). The presentation also discusses how unbalanced harmonic distortions calculated within the site and at the point of common coupling (PCC) can be mitigated using techniques such as the use of active / passive harmonic filters amongst others.
Engineers face unique challenges when calculating DC Arc Flash incident energy for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
