ETAP power system modeling video: • ETAP Software Tutorial...
In this video we go over how to perform short circuit and protection coordination studies in an example 230kV/13.8kV substation using the ETAP software, including how to model the protective relays, how to select the overcurrent elements' pickups and time dials, and how to show the overcurrent curves in a time-current characteristic (TCC) plot.

Appreciate all the effort you put to prepare before recording. Instead of all the ehhh ahhhh, you can introduce the procedures fluently, and there is no awkward silence. You are the best.

[@romeroengineering]

Thanks!

[@normamando1479]

that was very helpful thanks!

[@franciscogordillo7554]

Man, thank you so much. Not only your knowledge but your explanations are superb

[@romeroengineering]

Thanks! You can get more in-depth P&C training here: www.romeroengineering.co/courses

[@claudiasalazar5152]

Thank you so much for the tutorial, I was a bit lost because of all the features ETAP has

[@romeroengineering]

Glad it helped!

[@usmanbinsohail9638]

Please do Motor starting dynamic analysis with all starter types and transient stability this way too. You explained great.

[@rohandsouza2870]

Nice content .....waiting for full course on etap

[@romeroengineering]

Thanks! Working on it.

How to set the ground protection?

[@abuali7492]

Wow, it is really great, thanks a lot... just i noticed that pick settings of SEPAM 87 is up to 2.4 only so in this case how can we make the settings as the pick up current is 6.54?

[@hrvojem7924]

Awesome, keep up the good work 👏👏

[@romeroengineering]

Thank you! Will do!

[@davesmith9867]

Hey Ricardo, great content as always. What is the correct way to interpret the equipment damage curves on the section of the TCC where there is no line? For example, in the video the T1 damage curve goes up to about 2000A. How long does it take to damage T1 at 10000A?

[@bawagsk]

Thank you

[@goktanaygun7069]

Where can I find like this examples?

[@skierchutney]

Hi Ricardo, I think you may be missing some content in the Introduction to Modeling video on modeling the CTs and overcurrent relays on the feeders. I only mention it because I'm not sure how to configure the OCRs so that they match the numbers you get in your studies. Thanks!

[@romeroengineering]

Hi Rachel, check out this video where I go into modeling the CTs and relays in more detail: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHTPnpucqrt3hdk If it's still not clear after watching that one, let us know!

[@skierchutney]

@@romeroengineering Very helpful, thank you!

[@user-hx5tp3mu4n]

thank you so much!

[@alimohsin9209]

Perfect 🎉

[@romeroengineering]

Thanks!

[@wongsabarchannel1335]

Nice video, auto like and Subscribe👍👍👍 Btw what is parameter from above TCC curve required by Relay to be input prot relay Device?

[@ZarzisurRahman-wj8jc]

[@alanmoreno9074]

Do you know if they have a single/personal license for etap? Would really like to practice this stuff at home!

[@romeroengineering]

I don't think there is a personal license (I could be wrong, check the ETAP website), but there are student versions and a free demo version for 30 days.

[@tunanin]

great

[@romeroengineering]

Thanks!
