elec calc™ GRID is a complete solution for the simulation of all types of multi-source meshed networks, i.e. for the smart grid management. elec calc™ GRID also guarantees all the normative controls required by the applicable regulation. In addition, it offers a wide catalogue of components. This database is independent of any manufacturer.

elec calc™ GRID enables high and low voltage networks to be managed on the same interface. Its load flow calculation algorithm includes the definition of power flows for all installations with multiple sources at different levels, and the management of meshed networks, whether they are balanced or unbalanced.

Main features:

• Management of one to several power supplies at all levels of the installation:
  • Swing source
  • Controlled power source (PQ)
• Management of different models of sources
  • Conventional sources (HV, LV, transformers)
  • Synchronous alternator
  • UPS
  • Photovoltaics
  • Wind energy (coming soon)
• Calculation of load flow
• Calculation of short-circuit current according to IEC 60 909
• Calculation of thermal stress in the conductors
• Calculation of residual voltage and voltage drop at all points
• Normative controls according to the selected standard (IEC, NF, RGIE, VDE, NIBT, REBT, NEN)
• Multi-manufacturer database for all components
• Coordination checks (selectivity, cascading)
