Power System Load Flow Analysis with ETAP
Master steady-state load flow studies to plan, operate and optimise power networks using industry-standard ETAP software.
Program Overview
This hands-on program equips engineers with the theory and practical skills to perform load flow (power flow) studies on transmission and distribution networks. Participants model real feeders, run Newton-Raphson and Gauss-Seidel solutions, interpret bus voltages and line loadings, and produce compliant engineering reports.
What you will learn
- Build accurate single-line diagrams in ETAP
- Run and validate load flow solutions
- Identify voltage violations and overloaded equipment
- Recommend capacitor placement and tap settings
- Produce grid-code compliant study reports
