Background
As part of the design and development of distribution grids, whether they be public (e.g. town grids), or private (e.g. industrial sites), it is necessary to size or verify the sizing of the major equipment components transmitting electrical energy (transformers, cables, switchboards, etc.).
Requirement
The grid operator or the company contracting a project must first guarantee that the electrical grid is correctly sized and complies with applicable standards so as to ensure the safety of people and equipment. Then, it will normally seek to optimize the sizing in such a way as to control all its costs: investment (initial equipment cost), operation (minimizing active and reactive power losses, reliability) and maintenance (special configurations, redundancies, etc.).
Service principle
Capsim applies its experience in the sizing of electricity grids and uses suitable calculation tools (ETAP, PowerFactory, CYME, EDSA, PSS-E, etc…) to help you to design your distribution grid in the optimum manner.
Results
The sizing is optimized in such a way as to reduce costs while guaranteeing compliance with the electrical standards in force, with total impartiality towards and independence from equipment suppliers.
