The Easiest Way to Run ETAP Software

This book is a translation of the Indonesian
version titled “Cara EZ Belajar ETAP”. This
English version is expected to be available
for a broad range of readers.
Do you know the electrical power
system? This system is a high or medium
voltage electrical network but calculations are
required to measure and validate a network
system. However, if manual calculations are
used, it will take a very long time. Therefore,
a software named etap was created. etap
(electrical transient analysis program) is a
software used to simplify the analysis of an
electrical network system.
As its name suggests, etap can work
to analyze power flow (load flow), transient
disturbance (transient), harmonics, and up
to the protection system (short circuit). This
etap software also has standards, namely
ANSI (American National Standards Institute)
and IEC (International Electrotechnical
Commission) standards.
It should be emphasized that etap is only
a tool to make work easier, so etap users are
expected to already understand the theory
and material or basics of the electrical power
system, making it easier to use the etap
software.
