I find the existing software for the calculation of Electrical Installation difficult and long to use. Sometimes, I need to make a simple calculation or verification and I do not need to create a complete network to do it

Recently I have discovered some small calculators, some of them are too much simplified, but I find the idea good. There is for example…

voltage drop calculation from southwirehttp://www.southwire.com/voltagedropcalculator.jsp

voltage drop calculation from csgnet

And also recently from  Schneider for the calculation of several figures such as size motor, voltage drop, power factor correction,  curve displayer, protection coordination, …
Sadly that only  Schneider products are proposed

soft-tool-cap-bank

There is also Solutions Electrical, for example for the power factor calculation, but also other electrical engineering topics. It seems correct, but it is not free, so I have not tried it.

so how really this software works?only calculate or it will help us also for somehow to design.
explain us if possible thanks everybody.

Hello,

All the software are free. There is no need to download or to install them, they can be used directly from Internet. You should just go to the link that I have provided in my post.

How it works ?
For example if I take this one: http://hto.schneider-electric……eptune.fr/
And I take the first calculator "Display protection device curve",
I should just enter the input parameters (left side), click on "Display Curve"
and I have the results in the right side.

Is it better now ? ;)

Hello Carlos, Avnish,

if you need free off-line software for calculation of the electrical installation,
you can also take a look on :

http://www.soft.schneider-electric.com/
http://www.automation.siemens……fault.aspx

Tell me how do you find them…

Amtech is one of the top electrical calculations software packages out there, but very expensive. Solutions electrical is accurate, but not easy to use (can't even copy paste a circuit on the version I use). There is also ID-Spec from Schnieder for basic distribution design.

Re copper Bus Bar capacity it's a peace of copper and you can use the same calculation as for cable calculations.

Use IET guidance notes for electrical designers for electrical design calculations formulas. Well they're good for UK engineers anyway. Good luck

I can sugest you to use a program of Sneider Electric, the program is ECODIAL, there is possible to calculate anything, but using parts of Sneider. I use that program and I am content with it.
Try here http://www.soft.schneider-elec…..odialS.htm

Im a student. Im doing a pure sine wave inverter, but the software(Matlab, Multisim, Proteus) i use to do simulation all lack of Mosfet Driver component, please could u give me some comment what software should i use u making simulation?

THanks…….

Regarding Low voltage electrical calculation software, i have been using the software Trace Elec Calc (used to be called Tr-Ciel).
The software allows you to calculate LV installations according to French standard, NFC15-100 or the Belgian regulations, RGIE.
Calculations are been made base on the report of CENELEC R064-003
It works in 3 languages (EN, FR, NL).
It is isnt related to any manufacturer of electrical apparel (contrary to ECODIAL) so you can perform your calculations and dont have to choose one specific brand in ordrer to complete the calculation.
You get detailed calculation sheets, a global single line diagram in dwg form.
If you need more info go to the editor website: http://www.trace-software.com/

best of luck for your quest.
