Bus Data

Power Type

Select the power type for the equipment. The options are:

  • NPS: Normal Power Supply. For example, a power supply that has no backup.
  • CPS: Critical Power Supply. For example, a power supply that includes an uninterrupted power supply backup.
  • EPS: Emergency Power Supply. For example, a power supply that uses a generator for backup.

Bracing (kA)

Short circuit rating of bus bracing in kA.

Rating (A)

Continuous current rating of the bus in amperes.

Area

Area numbers are used to uniquely define different areas of the electrical system. These areas can then be used for creating specific text reports from analysis operations that represent subsets of the system. For example, typical paper plant areas may be the power house (Area 1), caustic plant (Area 2), pulp mill (Area 3), and paper machine (Area 4). Area numbers are positive integers between 1 and 999.

Zone

A zone number is simply a sub-area. This enables even more specific reporting. You may want to define the pulp mill as Area 3 and the digester electrical equipment as Zone 2. Specific reports can then be generated for this combination without including the entire pulp mill or the other digesters.

Fed By
