- Currents on the One-Line Diagram
- Illustrate System Wide Coordination
- Tabulate Operating Times via an Event Viewer
- Customizable Reports
Coordinate via One-Line Diagram
With ETAP Star, not only can you work with the time-current curves, you can also determine the operating time of protective devices simply by placing a fault on the one-line diagram.
- Graphically place a fault anywhere on the one-line diagram
- Automatically calculate & display the fault current contributions on the one-line diagram
- Determine the operating time & state of all protective devices based on the actual fault current contribution flowing through each individual device
- Globally view post fault actions & associated operating time via a tabulated Event Viewer
- Graphically examine the operation of protective devices via the one-line diagram
