PowerVue is a versatile and user-friendly software for electrical design and analysis, suitable for various applications such as commercial building services, industrial plants, distribution systems, and power factor correction.
What sets PowerVue apart from other software is that you can save time on load flow calculations and line to neutral, line to line, and 3-phase faults. The capabilities of PowerVue are extensive, which include calculating DC, single-phase or three-phase circuits, complete device information, evaluating the effects of disconnected devices and branches on the rest of the circuit, and calculating three-phase, line to ground, line to line, and double line to ground fault - this also includes motor contributions to a fault. PowerVue even shows earth current, fault R/X ratio, RMS and peak fault current.
Additionally, PowerVue offers single-click display of device rating and electrical data with graphical display of voltage and current vectors. You can create and modify device symbols, up to 260 symbols per file, add to or modify database device classification, and add or modify device database records. You can highlight devices with overcurrent, kVA/kW overload, and over/undervoltage.
PowerVue also allows you to print or plot to any Windows compatible printer or plotter. You can cut, copy, and paste devices and circuit sections to the Windows clipboard and use graphics to annotate and add legends, title blocks, logos to the single line diagram.
In conclusion, PowerVue is an excellent software to use because of its highly versatile and easy-to-use features that make electrical design and analysis applications efficient, accurate, and effective.
