Gila Al-Tawakol electric, an electrical solutions provider and panel builder, started their digitization transformation by switching from a general CAD software program to SEE Electrical. In order to satisfy the increasing need for specialist electrical design capabilities, this change was crucial. In order to guarantee a seamless transition, our change management strategy included thorough training programs, active stakeholder participation, and a phased implementation approach was essential to this process. This product demonstration discusses this journey, overcoming early resistance, encouraging a culture of continual development, and utilizing SEE Electrical's cutting-edge capabilities to increase our design accuracy and efficiency. This presentation reveals how this change is leading to more innovation and quality in our industry by streamlining our operations, reducing errors, shortening project timelines, and most importantly exploring new customizations and enhancements.
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 (DCAF) incident energy for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). Battery short circuit current is highly variant, and factors such as battery chemistry and the installation arrangement of BESS contribute to significant differences in short circuit behavior. As well, traditional methods of calculating DCAF may not be sufficient when it comes to BESS. Nexamp Energy studied these variations, including considerations for personal protection equipment (PPE). The Transient DC Arc Flash solution provided by ETAP was also examined to highlight the usefulness of model validation and the importance of high quality analysis methods for providing better accuracy in DCAF analysis for BESS.
Stellenbosch Municipality is a local municipality in the Western Cape province of South Africa serving more than 200,000 customers. They were in search of a capable OEM partner to provide them with end-to-end support in establishing a SCADA Master Station in their Control Centre to supervise and operate their distribution network. Further, they needed assistance to prepare the configuration of the SCADA Master Station system and allow for a completely integrated substation protection and control solution. With the help of Altek 欧美A片 (System Integrator of ETAP in South Africa), this project was executed to meet the customer’s objective. This demonstration discusses the new SCADA Master Station at the Municipal Control Centre, which was implemented in various phases. The first phase was establishing SCADA at the Control Centre and connecting 7 substations. The next phase will be to add-on DMS & OMS capabilities to the SCADA system. ETAP was selected for this phase due to its modular and scalable platform to build on top of the ETAP SCADA system to meet their need of a Distribution Management System easily in future.
Multiple arc flash incident energy mitigation methods are available, but how does an engineer know which is best for their client? This presentation identifies an approach to follow to pick the method, considering effectiveness, practicality, feasibility, and overall best option for realistic study results. With extensive experience with arc flash studies for many clients of all sizes, Mangan provides a real world demonstration of a project for a refinery client. The interplay between motor starting and arc flash analysis was evaluated, and mitigation recommendations were customized for the system. The challenges encountered during mitigation are identified, and the proposed solution is analyzed using ETAP Load Flow, Short Circuit, Arc Flash and Motor Acceleration Analysis. Safe motor operation, safe motor starting and arc flash protection are provided through customized mitigation methods and thoughtful system design.
This Red Sea Project is a groundbreaking endeavor in Saudi Arabia under the Saudi Vision 2030 economic development program. The project is powered by a fully renewable energy system, including large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) system and a substantial 1.3 GWh energy storage system, effectively providing 100% clean energy to the development. As the Engineering, Procurement and Construction firm for this project, SEPCOIII has been involved with the design and construction of a wide range of permanent utility assets, including support facilities such as desalination plants, power generation facilities and distribution networks for water, electricity and natural gas. In this presentation, learn how SEPCOIII relied on ETAP's Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) to assist with the technology challenges for the project’s distributed energy power system, and how the solution is being used to manage and supervise the power distribution system to achieve better optimizations and improve system stability.
