NEPLAN has been selected by the Swiss, German, Austrian and Czech electrical organizations (VSE, VDN, VEÖ, CSRES) to develop and maintain a software, which allows the evaluation of electrical equipment connection to LV and MV networks according to the standard “Technical Rules for the Assessment of Network Disturbances D-A-CH-CZ”.
The evaluation is done according the following criterias
- Voltage drop
- Voltage rise
- Flicker
- Harmonics
- Voltage unbalance
- Reactive power compenastion
- Commutation
- Evaluation of measurements
- Selectivity analysis and breaking condition for LV-fuses (fuse reach)
and considers power quality issues, especially in respect of renewable energies, e.g. wind, photovoltaic.
The base calculation are loadflow, voltage drop, short circuit , harmonic and motor starting analysis.
The software is available as own product “NEPLAN-DACH” or as a module within NEPLAN. NEPLAN-DACH is available as desktop or browser based solution in the cloud and has a limited set of functionality in respect to NEPLAN. It is therefore even easier to use.
