ElectricalOM for Advanced Users / ElectricalOM two supply problem

« Last post by RCDGuy on 12 October 2021, 10:20 »

There is something I do not understand.

1.   SSB 2
I have a switchboard SSB 2.  There are 2 incoming to this switchboard – 1 from MSB and the other from EMSB
I created the feed from MSB.  I then create tye EMSB and connect this EMSB to SSB 2.  This feed is supposed to be the primary feed.

Problem noticed:
•   Physically I have no objection over the display.  However:
•   When I change the breaker in the EMSB for SSB 2, it does not reflect the change I had done.
•   I believe the change is for the CB at MSB

Other problem
•   At EMSB, I noted that I cannot shift the feeder for SSB 2 to a location I wanted.  It stayed at the location I created the connection to SSB 2
•   The SLD on the left do not reflect the circuit breaker to SSB 2 from EMASB although the feed from MSB is clearly indicated

Please advise whether what I experience was a result of using the program or that I did not follow the steps correctly.

Yes, you can do this. If you navigate to Earthing and tick the use box next to Local earthing, you can define values for your new board. You should also tick Isolated box to make it a TT.
HTH.

ElectricalOM for New Users / TT fed from TNCS

« Last post by RCDGuy on 11 October 2021, 08:39 »

I am going to feed a small workshop, a former garage, from the CU and I want to use an electrode and do a TT for it. My original board is not a TT so can I do this with ElectricalOM?

Thanks in advance

The KNA range is aluminium busbars so you need to select the Al - Aluminium conductors option. Then it will list the aluminium rage including KN. See the screenshot for help.

In plan there is no any specific symbols for containment. Of course you can create one but usually is better to use muli-lines or just polylines with a specific line type. See the screenshot for some samples

You can install up to two tap-offs / section. You can add extra sections and set them not to use conductors. This will allow you to add as many taps and consider only only section.

See the attached image for guidance.

I'm plotting a design using the schneider KN bus-bar but can only place 1 tap off on one side of the bus-bar the type i'm installing as 6 tap offs on each length. Can this be fixed?
