| AUTOCAD...
GRP Engineering has multiple copies of AutoCAD
2004, 2005, & 2006 to provide our clients with the latest CAD
standards available.
GRP Engineering utilizes SPANNER software
to provide a seamless transition for placing MS Excel worksheets onto
AutoCAD drawings.
GRP Engineering utilizes EAGLE POINT
software to generate plan & profile drawings from survey data for
electrical transmission and distribution line designs.
MicroStation...
GRP Engineering has two seats of Microstation
V8.1 to provide clients with Microstation format drawings with the
latest CAD standards available from Bentley.
GRP Engineering also utilizes IRAS-B to
provide image editing required for Micro station file formats.
Power Tools for Windows...
GRP Engineering utilizes SKM's Power Tools
software package for the analysis and device coordination of utility,
industrial, and commercial power systems.
- Demand load analysis
- Voltage drop and load flow calculations
- Fault current analysis and calculations
- Feeder and transformer sizing
- One-line diagram creation
- Overcurrent setting and coordination checking
- Arc Flash analysis
Milsoft - WindMil, LightTable & LandBase
Electrical distribution system modeling
is completed utilizing Milsoft's WndMil engineering anaylsis software.
WindMil accurately models radial and looped distribution system through
a graphical usessr interface. Capabilities of WindMil include:
- Load flow & voltage drop
- Fault current & fault flow calculations
- Capacitor placement
- Load balancing
- Feeder optimization
- Motor flicker anaylsis
- Regulator setting calculation
- Reliability & contingency analysis
Geographical maps are intergrated into the engineering model through
Milsoft's LandBase module. Graphical backgrounds from the following
formats can be displayed behind the engineering model: AutoCAD,
Microstation, ESRI, TIFF, and Bitmap. Complete drawing layer control is
available directly through LandBase. The engineering model lcan be
exported to create printable system maps.
Utility system overcurrent device coordination is completed utilizing
Milsoft's LightTable coordination software module. LightTable directly
interfaces with the engineering module in Windmil to automatically
coordinate devices. WindMil and LightTable will calculate the
coordination points for fuse-fuse, fuse-recloser, and recloser-recloser
coordination.
PLS-CADD
Transmission line design, structure
analysis, advanced conductor sag & tension analysis, and plan &
profile draing preparation is completed in PlS-CADD. Transmission lines
are modeled three-dimensionally including the topography, structures,
and conductors. Structure modeling is completed through program modules
specific to structure material including wood, steel, laminated wood,
and concrete. Finite element analysis of transmission structures and
overhead conductors are also completed through PLS-CADD. Project
material lists are produced for cost estimation or construction
purposes.
Alcoa Sag10...
Conductor sag and tension analysis is performed
utilizing Alcoa's SAG10 software, the industry's leading conductor sag
and tension software. Sag10 provides numerical sag and tension
information for most conductors as well as graphical representations of
conductor sag based on span and temperature. Conductor vibration
analysis, thermal rating analysis, and analysis of conductor movement
envelopes are all preformed in the SAG10 software.
