Introduction
Electricity and Electrical Engineering
Following is a brief synopsis of Electrical Engineering and Design and also some
guiding principles that were employed in the creation of SmartPlant Electrical.
The Electrical Distribution Network
The electrical distribution network includes all the equipment and devices used to
control and deliver electrical power safely and efficiently from the ‘incoming’ service
to the ultimate end ‘users’ or ‘consumers’.
Equipment
The distribution network consists of:
1. Sophisticated equipment that in some cases is designed and manufactured for
particular network-specific (or plant design-specific) use.
2. Standard or ‘typical’ equipment that has the same characteristics from device to
device or even from project to project. SmartPlant Electrical has the ability to
handle both cases. One advantage the user will discover about SmartPlant
Electrical is that the ‘typical data’ need only be entered once and then copied as
needed to other similar devices. Both typical and copied items of equipment will
have specific parameters defined in the course of the design and recorded on the
project documents and drawings. The equipment includes (but is not limited to):
•
Incoming utility feeders
•
Generators
•
Substations
•
Switchgear
•
Motor Control Centers
•
Local Control Equipment
•
Motors
•
Cables
•
Low Voltage Distribution Panels
•
Lighting
•
Heaters
10 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Introduction
Electrical Engineering and Design
Involves the design of those electrical parameters and equipment that make up the
distribution and utilization network. Part of the design is also involved with correctly
assembling all the ‘pieces’ to form a cohesive and robust system (with calculated
results) to fill the current needs of the client as well as providing for future expansion.
This design is all handled in a framework of recognized Codes (National and Local),
Standards, and Accepted Practices. Another important function of electrical design is
to develop and record accurate calculations related to specific electrical and physical
phenomena that the engineer/designer uses daily. These design activities and the
resulting design documents are ultimately used to:
•
Provide safety and adherence to codes, client requirements, and so
forth.
•
Provide the contractor with direction and materials related needs
during construction.
•
Provide documentation to the particular facility’s ‘technical libraries’
for future reference, and so forth.
Documentation
These engineering and design activities are presented to the facility and to the
contractor in a variety of documents. Some of these documents will only be used
during construction, however, some will form a part of the facility’s technical library.
Some of these documents will include (but not be limited to):
•
Single Line Diagrams
•
Cable Schedules
•
Material Take-offs and Reports
•
Equipment List
•
Electrical Load Lists
Workflow
SmartPlant Electrical does not force a particular workflow, and thee are several ways
to perform the required design. SmartPlant Electrical has been designed to create and
enter data or entities in a series of stand-alone operations. These operations can be
performed in sequences that suit the users needs.
Some of the major issues with which SmartPlant Electrical development was
concerned were:
1. The very real assumption that current contracts are short in the Electrical Index
duration and that accurate and efficient tools are required to maintain the data
involved.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 11
Introduction
2. The design process is never a ‘one time through’ operation and that changes do
occur at any point during the life cycle of the design process.
3. SmartPlant Electrical users need a mechanism whereby they can set up ‘default’
information once and re-use it during the course of the project and in future
projects as well.
Smart Plant Electrical Modules
EI – Electrical Index
The Electrical Index is the module where you create and store project-specific
equipment and data. Logging into a SmartPlant Electrical project or plant will grant
you accessing your tags and relations as per your granted access rights set by your
Administrator. The Electrical Index will present the tags that belong to the entire
plant or specifically the ones of the lowest plant group (for example, Unit), based on
your settings.
To view all plant items, on the View menu, select the option Show Items of All Plant
Groups (when selected, a check mark appears beside the option as shown),
otherwise, to see only those items that belong to the current unit, deselect this option.
EE – Electrical Engineer
The Electrical Engineer is the module where graphical representations of Equipment
and Associations are stored.
RDE – Reference Data Explorer
The RDE is the module where you create and store reference (or generic) equipment
and data. This equipment and data can later be used as seed data to populate projectspecific electrical equipment in the Electrical Index. The more that is invested in
properly preparing the ‘generic data’ or ‘defaults’ the greater the savings will be
during the course of the current project and on future projects.

Note: Rated power property, varies and depend on the type of electrical equipment. For all type of equipment it has units of measure type of
property, while for Motors it is a select list.
Motor Form
In the Electrical Index, select M-1 that you already created. Press Ctrl + F2 to invoke the Electrical Motor
Common Properties form.
General Tab
Entering general data like description, manufacturer, model, motor type and frame size.
Data quality field enables you to qualify the status of the data of this motor.
Conformity to Standard, allows you to specify the standard for electrical calculations when you
associate a power cable with the motor.
Load Data Tab
Dependencies and workflow, fill in the required fields to see it in work.
The fields that are marked with asterisks (*) are required fields. If you do not enter data for these
fields, the software does not calculate certain important values.
To obtain the demand factor, on the Load Data tab, you should fill in values for Rated power
and Brake power (consistency of units is not mandatory, you may enter mixed hp and kW
values). The software also validates that the brake power does not exceed the rated power value.
Select a value for Rated voltage and let the system calculate the value for Full load current
(this property appears on the Electrical Data tab).
24 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Electrical Equipment
To obtain the synchronous speed, you should enter values for the Frequency, Poles, and Supply
properties. The software validates that the asynchronous speed never exceeds the synchronous
speed.
Select an operating mode to enter the coincidence factor of that motor
To get the Power factor and Efficiency values at demand you need to enter the Electrical Index
values at 50%, 75%, and 100% of operation.
We will see later that thee is a better way to populate these values using lookup tables.
Electrical Data tab
calculations behind these calculated fields.
Once you have entered all the previous values on the Load Data tab the software calculates all
three vectors of the electrical consumption from the bus that feeds this motor.
The full load current can be the Electrical Index the calculated or entered manually, depending
on the Override FLA Calculation flag. If it is set to Calculate, the values are calculated using
the rated power, power factor at 100%, rated voltage, number of phases and according to whether
the supply is
AC or DC.
Observe the relation between the FLA, LRC, and the Electrical Index ratio.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 25
Electrical Equipment
Controls & Signals Tab
Provides optional information for control stations that control the motor operation, and controls
and signals for the motor.
26 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Electrical Equipment
Instruments Tab
Displays instruments that monitor and control the motor operation.
Feeder Data Tab
Enables you to view and assign a feeder (provided an association to a feeder circuit does not yet
exist). Once an association is made, the only way of dissociating a motor from its feeder circuit
is in the Electrical Engineer.
On this tab, you can:
Pre assign the Motor to a PDB and to a bus without actually creating feeder circuits
Assign and Create feeder circuits on the fly, based on the last applied typical circuit
Once the Motor is assigned to a Feeder circuit you will see the actual components in that circuit
shown in the Internals grid.
Feeder equipment, displays the name of the equipment other than feeders that the load is fed
from. Such equipment can be a transformer's secondary, variable speed drive and so forth.

The last tab is the Alternate Feeder tab, showing the second power source that may be feeding this
motor, in case thee is such:
Static Loads, Heater Equipment Form
In this session you learn about all the various properties that may be edited or viewed for Static
loads, using the forms and the Electrical Index behavior under various circumstances. The
corresponding editing functionality using property grid will be mentioned
The function of the various tabs is very much the same as for the motor except for few minor
differences due to the fact that static loads are not rotating, therefore properties such as brake
power, LRC power factor, synchronous and asynchronous speeds, and so forth, do not apply.

Load Data Tab - calculated fields
Notes: Rated power for these types of loads is not a select list but rather a property with engineering units. Each type of static load has its own
category of units of measure. For example, heaters have Power, whereas capacitors and harmonic filters have Reactive power, etc. The demand
factor, power factor, and efficiency at demand are manual entries rather than calculated values.

Power Distribution Board
PDB’s and the related internal associated items play a major role in the design of an
electrical distribution network. A PDB usually is a confined enclosure that contains
the necessary electrical internal equipment that will accept and distribute power from
power sources to loads or other secondary distribution PDB’s.
While all types of PDB’s behave the same (SmartPlant Electrical wise) thee are
different names for these PD’s, based on what load they supply and what function
they serve in the electrical network. The following terms are used in a mixed way in
the various regions and countries:
Switchgear, PDB that supplies power to other lower voltage PDB’s such as MCC’S
Load Center is a PDB that distributes power to MCC’s
MCC (Motor Control Center) is a PDB that supplies power mainly to motors
Switchboard is usually a PDB that delivers power to small loads such as lighting
fixtures and low voltage circuit breaker distribution boards
PDB’s accept power (current under specific voltage levels) from power sources such
as generators, UPS, battery banks, other PDB’s, transformers, etc.
PDB’s deliver power (current under specific voltage levels) to loads and to other
PDB’s.
PDB’s accept power through incomer circuit that are connected to internal physical
metal buses (copper or other conducting material)
PDB’s deliver power through internal feeder circuits that connect to the internal
buses
Internal buses of a PDB can supply power to each other (a circuit in a bus is a feeder
to another bus). These type of feeder circuits are called bus couplers and they
connect to circuits that contain bus risers that receive the power and transfer the
power to the bus

Transformer, Ammeter, Voltmeter, Multimeter, Protection Relay.
Adding cables to typical circuits and project circuits
Considering that the control side of the circuit may have cables that connect from the circuit to a
DCS/PLC, there is a way to automate the creation of these cables by adding cables to the typical
circuits and from there to the project items.

Design of PDB Layout – General Arrangement
SmartPlant Electrical enables to design the cabinet layout of Power Distribution
Boards that have cells defined. The cabinet layout can be viewed, printed and saved
as document and deliverable; you can revise it - with both the graphical presentation
of the distribution and location of the various cells and also an embedded report of the
data for the cells and the loads and circuits that are contained within these cells.
The following features are supported:
Define the structure of PDB in terms of:
· Number of vertical sections (maximum allowable is 30).
· Number of horizontal rows (maximum allowable is 15).
· Number of compartments (subdivisions).
· Position in PDB can be further subdivided (maximum allowable is 4 by 4).
· Define the naming conventions for the sections and rows, those will be used for
identifying the cells position within the PDB
· Drag and drop cells from the Index to layout.
· Move cell from one position to another.
· Change size of position and cell

The following rules apply on designing a PDB Layout:
· Once the number of sections, rows, number of vertical/horizontal compartments
have been defined, any
attempt to modify these settings will result (after a warning) in a complete cellcompartment reset and un
assignment (in case no cell has been assigned no harm will be caused…)
· The only exception is that the user is able to add sections to the right side of the
PDB (by increasing the
number of section in the property grid by the use of the ellipsis…)
· The origin point of each and every compartment is its left upper point. This means
that any change of
compartment size is referenced to that point.
· A compartment may be enlarged to its right or to its bottom only (a left most
compartment in a vertical section can only be enlarged to its right or to any free space
available down).
· A compartment cannot be enlarged to a part of an adjacent compartment; you
change its size to occupy the entire right side adjacent compartment size.
· A compartment cannot exceed the boundaries of a section
· A compartment can exceed the boundaries of a row.

A control station can be associated to a project cable (cable category should be
control, ground or instrument), and/or to a load.
A control station may have more than one cable, but it can have one load associated
only.
Once a cable is associated to a control station, the control station becomes the “to”
side reference of that cable.
When the creation of the control station is a result of an automated process as
described above, the association is created as part of the automation process, both to
the cable and to the load.
In case the control station is created manually, the user is responsible for these
associations.

Cables
Smart Plant Electrical specifies the following cable categories according to the
purpose of the cable:
Power, control, grounding, and instrument. The software supports compliance with
the strict regulations governing cable definitions by using standard reference cables as
a basis for all the cables that you create in your project. Reference cables contain
technical cable data such as voltage rating, ampacity, resistivity, cable material, and
data relating to the construction of the cable. For this reason, you must initially create

Apply Lookup Tables
Applying look up tables may result in overwriting project data. One should be aware of this. The
right timing on whether and when to commit this operation is an engineering decision and would
be based on your project state and your workflow.
You should make sure that the tags that have been selected for this operation have the key fields
populated with data that will be recognized by your look up tables, otherwise, data will not be

SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 93
Propagating Default Data and Associations
Apply Typical Circuit
The purpose of this feature is to have a powerful way of the Electrical Index the to create new
circuits and internals or to replace existing circuits or internals.
Applying typical circuit on item will not create the internal components if the item is not yet
associated with a circuit. In this case, only a reference to the typical circuit is maintained. You
can verify which typical circuit is assigned to a item by opening the “Feeder Data” tab of the
item.
Circuit internals (also, typical circuit internals) must have a unique sequence (order) property,
which determine the Electrical Index power path in the Electrical Engineer. Applying a typical
circuit on an item must preserve the electrical relations (if existed before) between the last
internal component in the circuit and any other “external” object that was associated before
(usually this would be a cable).
Applying typical circuits is available upon selecting single or multiple items.
The following are the various options for applying the typical circuit work correctly on the
selected set or multiple items you have highlighted.
All Items Applies the profile to all the selected items.
Items with no typical circuit Applies the profile only to items without an existing profile. Use
this option to add a profile only to new items among the items that you selected.
Items with a different typical circuit from the selection Changes the profile of the selected
items to the current profile. Use this option to add a profile to items with a modified profile
definition.
Items with the same profile as the selection Updates an existing profile for the selected items.
94 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Propagating Default Data and Associations
Clear last applied typical circuit makes it possible to clear pre associated typical circuits.
The actual project items are created as per the typical circuit (you need to associate the load with
a PDB – Bus and Cell in order to create them)
When applying a typical circuit on loads that have electrical associations, associations are kept.
Guidelines and rules:
1. When assigning typical circuits, the system checks and prompts in case of
discrepancy between the reference typical of the load and the circuit we are trying
to associate it to. In case of a batch, the user is the decision-maker and he has the
option to choose the scenario. No prompt will be issued in the batch apply. The
“Apply” will govern and not the circuit.(still, the rules will govern- in case thee
are some motors that were not applied a “non all items has been successfully
committed” message will be issued)
2. Associating a motor to a circuit that has no internals will result in creating the
actual internals if thee is a reference in the motor. If not, it will not generate
anything. Internals will be created once the profile is applied on the load. The
form of the load/motor will be updated to show this typical circuit.
3. Trying to associate a motor with a typical circuit on a circuit (the Electrical
Index the by the drag and drop or applying a profile) that has different type of
typical defined within it, will be preceded with a message: "Load and circuit
internals are different- do you wish do override circuit internals? “Yes” or
“Cancel” will tell the system how to proceed. If yes, the system will replace, as in
the apply profile the internals of that circuit.
Reapplying a Typical Circuit
Typical circuits will replace the existing internal circuits and the Electrical Index
components with the Reference Data Explorer components that constitute the
typical circuit. Any existing electrical relations and association will be kept and
preserved (so the Electrical Engineer will not be affected).
It will be up to the designer to make sure that what he is doing is right.
Apply Control Station
Applying control stations on loads will add new control stations and the Electrical
Index cables or replace existing control stations (and the Electrical Index cables)
associated with the loads.
The control stations associated with a load can be seen in the “Control & Signals” tab
of the load. This identifies the project control stations associated with the load. You
can identify to which load the control station belongs to and what are the cables that
are associated to it by opening the control station property dialog.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 95
Propagating Default Data and Associations
Note: When reapplying control stations you should expect:
Existing control stations and the Electrical Index cables should be replaced or added
according to the checked options (old control stations and the Electrical Index cables
deleted)
Cable associations, if existed, should REMAIN (we are talking of control cables
associated to control station- any new stations will be new and any replacements will
result in replacing the cables + stations
Control stations and the Electrical Index cables will be replaced by the new set of
control stations and the Electrical Index cables. Any associations and relations of
these items will remain as before, the To and From relations of the cables will be
transferred to the new control stations and the cables. Any additional control station
cable will have its To side associated to the control station and its From side will be
not assigned.
Apply Typical Schematic
This option is used when you need to specify a typical schematic or to modify the
associated typical schematics of a group of loads The user may associate typical
schematics also to loads, converting equipment, circuits, disconnect electrical
equipment, generators, battery banks and buses.
96 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide

Apply Profile
The Apply profile maps the reference profile item properties, to the project item and creates
additional items, as specified in the Profile.
If we use motor item type, then for a new motor, it will create new items, and when reapplying a
profile on an existing motor, the operation will result in replacing the previously applied and or
associated items with the items specified in the new applied profile.
The right timing on whether and when to commit this operation is an engineering decision and
would be based on your project state and your workflow.
Number of items to create This option is available only when you select the folder for the item
you require prior to selecting Apply Options, and after you select Enable equipment profile. It
allows you to specify the number of new items to create in the Electrical Index in accordance
with the profile you select.
Assigning a Load to a PDB/Bus/Cell/Circuit
All electrical consumers and distribution equipment (PDB’s) need power source. The
power source must match the requirements of the supplied equipment, in voltage
levels, current consumption and by providing a suitable protection and control
circuits.
A load can be assigned and connected to one circuit only.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 99
Propagating Default Data and Associations
A circuit may feed one or more loads or equipment.
You can associate the load to a feeder from more than one environment:
•
From load form
•
Through the Batch Load Assignment
•
By dragging the load from the Index to the Engineer
•
By moving the load within the Engineer (you will learn about this
later)
From the load form:
In case thee is not yet a circuit associated, the user is able to do the association from
this form, as a one time action, after that he needs to go to other place for modifying
the association.
Thee are three alternatives that you can choose to assign a load:
1. You can pre-assign a load to a PDB and its bus without actually creating and
connecting the load to a feeder circuit.
2. You can create a new feeder circuit on the fly by selecting the Create circuit
check box. (You can also select the Create cell check box if required.) This
option automatically creates a new feeder circuit under the bus, populates the
circuit with the components specified in Last applied typical circuit, and
connects the load to that circuit. (If a motor has an associated set of items such as
100 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Propagating Default Data and Associations
a cable, a junction box, and so forth, the uppermost associated item is connected
to the circuit in the Electrical Engineer.)
3. You can associate the load with an existing spare or other feeder circuit by
selecting the circuit from the appropriate list on the Properties entry form.
Clicking Apply or OK commits the operation. Clicking Cancel reverts to the
previous setting.
Batch Load Assignment
It is common practice to associate loads with a PDB not one by one, but rather using a
batch operation based on some common properties. For example, all the motors of
Area 1 should be fed by MCC-100, bus A. The user needs a way of assigning loads
by selecting a set of loads and associating all the tags to the same PDB and bus by
means of a single command.
In this session you will learn how to select a PDB and a bus, select a set of loads and
perform an association between them.
Since this operation provides the total installed load values, it gives the user an ability
to perform some iterations on the assignments without actually assigning the loads to
final circuits.
As with the forms, the user can perform a pre-assignment first by selecting a PDB and
bus only, thereby adding the loads but not creating circuits. Alternatively, the user can
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 101
Propagating Default Data and Associations
create circuits on the fly automatically by selecting the Create circuits / Create cell
check boxes.
To select a set of loads you select a set of tags using the Tabular Editor and then click
Add Selected Loads. The calculated values shown are the total calculated electrical
quantities of all the assigned loads.
The load balancing will be done by using the Move to cache functionality:
One of the biggest challenges in electrical design is to perform load balancing. This is
an operation that is done at the early stages of the project, moving loads from one bus
to another, watching the total bus load, until buses are evenly loaded.
SmartPlant Electrical now supports this operation in the Batch load association form.
It is assumed that this operation is done in early stages of the project at which no
feeder cables have been yet created between the loads and the feeder circuits and
profiles have not yet been applied and populated and created massive data sets.
Suppose we want to move M-1, and M2 from PDB-1, Bus-1 to PDB–2, Bus-2
In the batch load assignment, we select the loads and clicking the Move to Cache
button, which will move them to the last new tab named Cached Loads:
102 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Propagating Default Data and Associations
These loads will appear in the Cached Loads tab:
The next step is to select the new PDB and bus to where we want to move the loads.
This will request to save the operation of the un- assign from the current bus, before
he can move to other bus.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 103
Propagating Default Data and Associations
Once you save this operation is committed to the data base and these loads have been
dissociated from the current bus, and waiting to be assigned to other buses.
Select the loads and hit the assign to bus to complete the transaction.
104 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Propagating Default Data and Associations
Note: Until all these loads have been moved and assigned, they will remain in the
Cached loads Tab of each and every PDB, until assigned to a bus.
Note: Variable frequency drives are used to drive motors, you can include the
variable frequency drives in the grid to calculate the Electrical Index power
consumption if required.

Cable Sizing
Cables can be sized as stand-alone cables (not associated to loads or other objects). In this case,
the user needs to provide sufficient electrical characteristics in order to perform the sizing
calculation.
The same applies if the cable(s) are associated to loads.
It is important to understand that the cable sizing procedure is iterative. Thee are several
procedures involved, but not always all these procedures are executed.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 108
Cable Sizing
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 109
Cable Sizing
The following procedures are done for motors or loads in general.
Ampacity Sizing
In this procedure the software looks for a cable that satisfies the de-rated ampacity. If
the software can’t find a cable that can be used, it will try to assign parallel cables
110 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Cable Sizing
(starting from a minimum cable size defined in the options manager and up to a
maximum number of allowable cables, also set in the option manager). Once the
software finds the cable that matches the required de-rated ampacity, it will proceed
to the voltage drop running validation.
Voltage Drop (VD) at Running (VDN)
In this validation, the software validates the cable voltage drop percentage during
normal full load current running conditions satisfies the maximum allowable cable
voltage drop that is set by the user.
Voltage Drop at Starting Conditions (VDS)
In this validation, the software validates the cable voltage drop percentage during
start of the motor satisfies the maximum allowable cable starting voltage drop that is
set by the user.
IMPORTANT: For loads other than motor (static), only the first and second
procedure is carried out. This means that the system does not require the following
properties “Power factor at starting”, “Starting Current” and “Allowable Voltage
Drop Percent Start”.
The sizing program will recommend the required cable size according to the:
Cables found in the selected cable Specification as per the project cable
Same conductor Arrangement as the project cable
IMPORTANT: the Reference Data Explorer catalog cables will be the source for
the sizing and cable selection. It is important to make sure your cable catalog is full of
all the standard cable sizes and configurations. If a specific size and arrangement is
missing from the catalog, the sizing may find a different cable, which has a higher
cross section (not as the one recommended by the sizing Excel program).
Note: if thee isn’t any cable found with the specified construction or electrically
suitable, the software needs to notify this to the user. The message should say clearly
that the sizing of this cable was not successful and a proper cable was not found to
satisfy the requirements.
When the cable is associated to a load (the “To” side is associated with the load), the
cable should inherit electrical properties from the load. The automatic data transfer is
valid for loads only. For other cables association this information needs to be entered
manually.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 111
Cable Sizing
Ambient Temperature Correction Factor
Ambient temperature affects the ampacity of the cable, meaning that in higher
ambient temperatures, the cable will be able to carry less current than it is specified in
its basic ampacity. The temperature effect can be the Electrical Index the calculated
or taken from tables (NEC tables give these figures).
The request was though not to calculate the effect, but simply enter the ambient
temperature derating factor manually.
Basically, the overall derating factor is calculated :
Df= (Custom derating factor X Utilization factor X Ambient temperature factor)
The ability of this factor to affect is set at the Options Manager, general settings:
In case it is set to No, the system will set it in the formula to “1”, and this way not
affecting the overall derating factor.
Calculating Maximum Allowable Power Cable Length
As part of the sizing procedure, the system calculates and shows the maximum
permissible cable length
for that particular cable type that meets the voltage drop specifications.
Let us enter some sizing data and size a cable

This number, of the maximum cable length is calculated from the voltage drop
formulae. Trying to enter a longer cable length will automatically cause the algorithm
to suggest a larger cross section cable.

Fault Short Circuit Cable Sizing
Set ‘True’ in property grid for ‘Enable Short Circuit Sizing’, will include an
additional step in the sizing algorithm- to match the fault short circuit current values
imposed by the network to the cable short circuit capabilities. The algorithm is based
on the following formula:
T +β

⎜ ⎟ t = K × l og 10 2
T1 + β
⎝ A⎠

I = Short Circuit current [Amperes]. This is the maximum permissible (allowable)
short circuit current that the conductor can withstand.
A = Conductor area [Circular-mils]. See appendix at the end of this document for
additional information.
t = Time of short-circuit [Seconds]. This value is determined by the time it take the
protective devices to disconnect the power. Some standards use fractions of the
frequency. Sometimes, this time is assumed to be 5 or 10 seconds.

If not all the information that should apply is provided, the software should notify the
user to fill in the missing information. For example, “No value for Conformity to
standard found.” Message is displayed when this property is missing (need to verify
all required properties).
Refresh Load - Changes in Electrical Data of Load
If a load has an already sized cable and the load’s electrical properties are changed,
the cable gets a notification that the load’s electrical properties changed. In this case,
the “Refresh Data” command button of the cable should become enabled.
The electrical properties that should trigger this message are those that affect the
sizing of the cable and are copied from the load.
Note: In this case, if the “Sizing” tab of the cable is opened, it will say that the load’s
electrical properties have changed which means that the user needs to verify the
sizing results.
You may also perform this operation in batch, for all the power cables that the
Electrical Index loads have been updated by using the following command:
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 119
Cable Sizing
Power Systems
DC Systems
SP- Electrical cable sizing support DC power systems.
DC (Direct current) systems are not commonly used in power industry. These
systems will be used in indoor machines usually. DC power requires special motors
and usually used in machines where very high precision is required.
AC Systems
AC Single Phase Systems
This type of cable sizing is supported by SP-Electrical.
AC stands for Alternating Current. The cable sizing supports single phase and 3 phase
systems.
AC Two Phase Systems
We will not support cable sizing of ac other than 1 or 3 phases.
Whenever the user attempts to size a cable that the number of phases is other than this
the system will issue a message (when trying to perform the sizing):
" Number of phases must be the Electrical Index the 1 or 3, please correct "
AC Three Phase Systems
This type of cable sizing is supported by SP-Electrical.
Three-phase systems are the most commonly used power systems in the industry.
Batch Sizing of Cables
In order to perform batch sizing: Select multiple cables in the Electrical Index or
tabular editor (need to verify that it works from both places) -> Actions -> Cables ->
Batch size cables.
The dialog collects all the selected cables and performs the sizing. If everything goes
OK and the sizing passes without any missing data, the recommended sizes are
populated in the grid.
120 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Cable Sizing
If there is missing data that prevents the system from sizing the cable(s), the
“Comment” column states thee is missing data. If data is missing, all that you need to
do is right-click the cable record to open the Cable Common Properties form and add
the missing data.
To apply sizing, check the select check box for each cable you need to perform the
sizing, and hit Apply Sizing .
The batch sizing process is usually necessary upon a change in cable design
parameters or change in loads, where sizing of individual cables would be time
consuming.
Replacing Cables
Replacing project cables is possible in two ways: manual replacing cable and batch
replace.
The rules that should apply are as follows:
When a cable is replaced by another catalog cable, it should get the cable
characteristics of the newer catalog cable: voltage rating, temperature ratings,
ampacity, reactance and resistance, formation, sizes, materials etc.
Replacing a project cable by another should retain project data of the original cable:
Name and service, Design data: Procurement, from/to, associations to objects, and
sizing results.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 121
Cable Sizing
Any other cable property defined by the project that does not pertain to the catalog
cable construction or technical specification.
In case thee are Parallel cables, all these cables are replaced as per the selected cable
Cable construction (number of conductors, size, formation) is adjusted according to
the new selected cable.
Note: After replacing the cables, you should perform a cable sizing operation.
Glands
Reference cable glands can be created in the Reference Data Explorer:
With the use of the following UI specify the major gland data:
122 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide

While the General tab defines its certification and type basic properties, the Details
Tab specifies the more detailed dimensions.
While the inner and outer dimensions provide information on the size of cables that it
can accommodate, the Armor clamp flag, when checked means that this gland is
suitable for armored cable (has metal armor)
You may associate reference glands to reference cables in the Reference Data
Explorer from the new Connections tab:

Reports
Reporting is the process of retrieving information from the database and displaying
the information as formatted output. At any time during the design creation process,
you can create a report. Each report consists of a Microsoft Excel workbook and a
report definition, which describes the data to collect and how to organize the data in
the workbook.
Each report you create is based on an item type. This item type serves as the starting
point for collecting data for your report. Examples of item types include motors,
cables, control stations, and buses. Several default report templates already exist;
however, reports are fully customizable. You can create your own reports that contain
the information you want to see in a format you choose.
Report Writer
The SmartPlant Electrical report writer lets you quickly and easily create and modify
reports. The report writer runs with Microsoft Excel and therefore allows all
formatting to be done with Excel formatting commands: for example, drawing lines,
sorting column data, and inserting objects. When you edit the SmartPlant Electrical

toolbar to define and map
properties in the database to a specific column in the Excel file. This toolbar also lets
you filter the database information, sort the information, and format the column
header information.
You open the report writer from the SmartPlant Electrical environment. Click the
Reports menu for the various options. These options let you create new reports,
modify existing reports, delete reports, and run the Electrical Index the project
reports (plant report) or user-level reports (my report).
Project reports are stored in the server directory (Option Manager specifies this
default directory)
My reports are stored locally on your machine (under \Profiles\<username>\My
Reports\Output).
Creating New Report Templates
To create a new report template, click Reports > New.
The Report dialog box lets you create a new report from by selecting the Blank value
for the Source template. You can also select any existing report to use as a template
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 127
Reports
or starting point for a new report of that item type. All reports stored for the project
and the reports stored for the current user are displayed in this list.
You can define three report types for a new report: Fixed format, Tabular format, and
Composite format.
•
Fixed format. For a report that is defined as fixed format, each item
that you select for the report is printed on a separate sheet with no
repetition of data. The fixed format type is similar to the
instrumentation spec. sheet reports.
•
Tabular format. A tabular report prints all of the items selected on a
single sheet. Most of the SmartPlant Electrical delivered reports are
defined as tabular format.
•
Composite format. A composite report is a combination of fixed
format and tabular format. The first sheet is fixed format and contains
the data common to the items on the subsequent sheets. The
subsequent sheets have the specific item data. For example, a pump
vendor report would have the vendor’s name and information on the
first sheet, and the listing of the pumps from that vendor on the second
sheet.
If you click Add to project reports, the report is stored in the project reports location
defined in Options Manager. If you do not click this checkbox, the report is stored in
the user report directory. By default, the user report directory is located in your user
name profile directory.
SmartPlant Reports Toolbar
After you create or modify the report, Microsoft Excel is opened, and the SmartPlant
Reports toolbar is displayed in the worksheet.
This toolbar lets you define attributes that are available to the report and define the
sorting criteria for this data. The toolbar also lets you filter the data for a specific
value or range of values. You define the report header information here as well as
map the defined attributes to specific cells.
When you click Define on the SmartPlant Reports toolbar, a dialog box is displayed,
allowing you to create, edit, and remove items in the report tree view.
When you click Define on the Define Report Contents dialog box, a list of attributes
is displayed for that report item. From this dialog box, click Sort to sort by one or by
multiple attributes in ascending or descending order. The Filter tab allows
discrimination on a certain value or values for the property.

Items and Properties that can be used in the Reports
Defining items and the properties that you wish to see in your report is procedure that
requires a knowledge in the data model of Smart Plant Electrical.
Thee can be reports that are very easy to retrieve the required data and thee are such
that are more complex. The available list of items and related properties available is
based on the data model associations, and you may need to select the Electrical
Index the a single item type or use a chain of item types- all depending on your
needs. Thee is more than one way of accessing items and data, and it depends from
which item type.

Report Options
Options on the SmartPlant Reports toolbar define the report header and basic
information in the body of the report. The Report Options dialog box applies only to
tabular and composite reports because the fixed report prints each set of data on a
different sheet.
132 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Reports
Skip lines between rows defines the number of lines between each printed row of
data. Rows in report header defines the basic report information. Project name, unit
name, date, report title, and company logos are examples of information that goes in a
report header. This information is printed on each page of the report. Also, if any of
the information mapped in the header changes, the software prints a new page with
the header information. Because a page break occurs if the value for an attribute
changes in the report header, the basic report information (attributes) should not be
mapped in any rows in the report header. Otherwise, every time a value changes in
the header, the information prints on a new page. In the example above, the mapping
of attributes would begin in row 6 or after.
You may cause the header to be displayed on each page by File-ÆPage setup and
selected the Sheet tab to “row to repeat at top”
Map Attributes
After you define attributes, they are available to be mapped to specific columns and
rows in the spreadsheet. Use Map Attributes on the SmartPlant Reports toolbar to
place attributes. Point to the cell to insert the data, and select the item from the Map
Attributes list.
Editing Report Templates
To edit an existing report, click Reports > Edit. In the Edit Report Template dialog
box, you can change the title and open the template in Excel for editing.
Deleting Reports
To delete existing reports, click Reports > Delete. Depending on how project
permissions are set, you can delete a single report or multiple reports.

All Feeder Load Summary Report (Rated and Consumed Values)
This report is a bus load summary report that includes “roll up” of downstream loads.
The report collects all the loads that are connected to the circuits that are tied to the
specific bus, including circuits that feed other buses, looks for the Electrical Index
connected loads, performs a roll up (brings the total downstream loads up to the
selected bus) and calculate the total load, based on some Options Manager or
preferences settings, definitions and factors, as follows:
-In the Option Manager or preferences, the user will define:
Whether to calculate the total load based on individual coincidence load factor or use
the bus averaging coincidence factors
Whether to include coupled and tied buses
-For each bus, the user will be able to define if the system should calculate the
connected loads, or to use the Bus rated values
Cable Schedule
Cable schedule provides a detailed list of all the project cables. Besides the cable tags
names and the Electrical Index type, stores part numbers the report provides the
origin and destination of the cable side 1 (“to” side) and side 2 (“from” side). These
“to” and “from” information will include the tag of the item this side is assigned to- in
case the to/from is a PDB, PDB/Bus/Cell/Circuit Tags will be provided.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 135
Reports
In case the to/from is a panel with internal circuits, these tags will be provided.
Cable Sizing Summary
Cable Sizing Summary is a report that lists all the cable sizing input and output data
for a specified power cable. This report is useful as a quick reference for your sizing
considerations and criteria at any time during the life cycle of your project. This
report provides the following information:
Cable tag name.
Cable origin and destination sides (the To and From cable sides).
The To and From information includes the tag of the electrical item that the cable is
assigned to.
Input values such as load voltage, full load current, number of phases, and so forth.
Sizing results such as reference cable, conductor size, calculated voltage drop, and so
forth.
Cable Take-off
This report provides a summary of all the different cable types of all categories,
including any none sized cables, that the user has created in the project.
This report will provide technical details about the type of cable and calculates the totals
estimated and design lengths of each type.
The total required length for Single core conductor configuration cables lengths will
be calculated taking into consideration the number of conductors of each of the
cables. ( the system multiplies the number of conductors per phase by the cable
length)
Electric Load List
Electrical Load List is a report that you generate based on the load item type. The
software retrieves the load tags with the relevant load tag data, such a rated power,
brake power for motors, as well as values for efficiency, power factor, full load
current, and so forth.
136 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Reports
Instruments and Cabinets
This report is actually a report based on Equipment table, and its main use is to be a
template so user can create a registered report that can be used to publish to INtools,
instruments and cabinets that were retrieved from INtools loads
Signal List
The report is used as a template for creating registered reports that can be used as
published document to send IO signals to INtools.
PDB Load Summary
This report provides a load summary for Power Distribution Boards. The main difference of
this report from the All feeder load summary is that thee is no roll up in this report and the
load summary includes directly connected loads only.
Its intention is to provide a list of the associated loads connected/associated with a
PDB, sum the Electrical Index electrical kW, kVAR and kVA and enable the user to
evaluate what should be the required capacities that this PDB will need to deliver.
The report calculates 2 summaries. One, that includes only the continuous and
intermittent loads and second, all the connected loads, including any spares and
standby loads. The system uses the individual coincidence factors of the loads.
The Loads For each associated load, the report will list the load rated power, its
demand factor, operating mode, operating factor and its electrical consumed and rated
values.
The report does not consider downstream or tied or coupled PDB’s or other
equipment that may have been connected and fed from the selected PDBs.
Calculated Results The report will group the loads per PDB (sort them) and sum the
electrical quantities to provide the total running (consumed) load and the total peak
load based on the coincidence factors that has been defined for each and every load.
Within the PDB, the loads are sorted per the Electrical Index bus association and
then alphanumerical within the bus. The report multiplies each electrical load by its
coincidence factor (x, y, z or zz). Based on the total kW and KVA’s, the report will
calculate the required power factor. Calculated values and Results are not stored in
the data base and they are recalculated each time the report is generated.
The PDBs The report doesn’t filter out any specific PDB and if not filtered, it will list
all the PDB’s.
In case you want a specific PDB, you should use the filter to filter the specific PDB
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 137
Reports
Each PDB will be displayed on a separate page, with the first page allocated to non
those loads that are not related and associated to any PDB.
PDB Load Summary by Operating Mode
The "PDB Load Summary By Operating Mode" report is intended to be a
complementary to the new "All Feeders Load Summary" report, which calculates the
Running and Peak loads according to each load coincidence factor or to each load
feeding bus coincidence factor.
As it is sometimes required (especially for off shore platforms) to execute the load
summary calculation per special operating modes like emergency or life support
systems, the software was enhanced to provide
definition of up to 10 operating modes factors (Duty & Load factors) to each load or
bus, and the new "PDB Load Summary By Operating Mode" is calculating the total
power per each one of the 10 op. modes. The "PDB Load Summary By Operating
Mode" is subjected to same preferences like the "All Feeders Load Summary" report
(meaning: coupling method and usage of Load or Bus factors)
The formula used to calculate the total power for each op mode is not the same as
used in the "All Feeders Load Summary" report.
PDB Schedule
This report is a deliverable that one may generate to list all the contents of a certain selected
PDB.
It will list, per selected PDB, all the circuits, the loads, the internal components and
the Electrical Index technical details of each circuit, its associated schematics
drawing, rated powers
Power Distribution Panel Schedule
PDB Schedule is a report that is intended for single phase loads connected to
distribution panels.
The report specifics are as follows:
The report lists, per selected PDB, all the circuits, each with its protection device type
and current rating (the software supports a single protection device per circuit) and
the loads associated with each circuit.
138 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Reports
The report sorts the circuits by phase and then by circuit (all the circuits for phase 1,
then phase 2, and then phase 3). The report calculates the following: Full load current
for each phase, Total load current of the bus, Total kW per phase, Total kW per bus.

Schematics
Schematics
A schematic is a graphical representation of wiring and motor control systems. You create a
schematic by assembling it from typical blocks.
A block is a graphical representation of an electrical item. Blocks are parts of a complete
drawing. To create a block, start by creating an entire drawing in Catalog Manager or any CAD
application such as SmartSketch, AutoCAD, or MicroStation. Once the complete drawing is
ready, you select a part of the drawing and turn it into a block.
You can generate schematics for the following item types:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
All loads
All converting equipment
All disconnect equipment
Circuits
Buses
Generators
Battery banks
The software can generate a schematic by retrieving data for power related items from one block
or several blocks. If your generated schematic drawings contain the same information (that is, the
information repeats itself in identical sections of different schematic drawings), you should
consider creating a schematic block for the repeated parts so that this single block can be used by
several other schematic drawings. Note that you can create schematic drawings that include
several sheets. Multi-sheet schematics are mostly used when you need to display complex
electrical equipment for which a single sheet is not enough to show all the relevant wiring details
of the equipment.
After creating a block, you define the macros for that block. A macro is the smart text that you
attach to the block graphic. The software retrieves this smart text from the database and attaches
it to the block, thus making it part of the block file. You can create your macros in Catalog
Manager, SmartSketch, AutoCAD, or MicroStation.
Also, you must attach your blocks to templates. A template contains the definition for the desired
title block, border, and page size. You attach your blocks to templates in Catalog Manager,
SmartSketch, or any other CAD application.
Before generating a schematic drawing, you create a typical block and a typical schematic that
you will attach to a load for which you want to generate a schematic drawing.
Typical blocks
Typical block associated with drawing file (block or symbol) and it’s the basic element for
Typical schematic. There are several ways to create a block/symbol. Lets look at the following drawing.
148 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Schematics
You will notice that there are 2 groups of symbols called Block 1 and Block 2. The border makes
Block 3. Assume, for the sake of this discussion, that this was a representation of how you
wanted your schematics to appear, except with a variation on block 1, which we will call Block
1A.
The easiest way to create your symbols would be to make 4 copies of this drawing (one for each
block that you want to make a symbol from – Blocks 1, 1A, 2, 3). Delete everything else from
the particular drawings except the graphics that you want to see on that symbol.
So Symbol #1 (a drawing of just the graphics needed for Typical Block #1) may look like this:
Symbol 1A may be some variation on this set of graphics. Symbol 2 may look like this
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 149
Schematics
Of course, you will make a template out of the Block #3, which may look like this:
Notice the relationship between the placement of these Blocks and the ‘Point of Origin’. This is
how the software places the symbols or blocks in the correct physical relationship to each other
and to the sheet.
Once the symbol files are prepared, you can save them in whatever format you are working.
Then all that is left is to add your macros and create a Typical Block from that Symbol File.
The above is true for all types of drafting packages.
Create a Typical Block
1.From RDE select Typical Block folder > right click -> New Typical Block
2.Give it a Name
3.Open Common Properties of the new block.
4.Select a block type.
5.Browse to the drawing file and select the symbol/block you need.
6.Select Apply or OK.

1.In the Reference Data Explorer, right-click the Typical Schematics folder, and then click
New.
2.Type a name of up to 80 characters for the typical schematic.
3.Right-click the schematic and click Common Properties to open the Typical Schematic
dialog box.
4.Select template.
5.Select Add to add a typical block (you can 1 or more blocks).
6.To finish select Apply or OK.
You can view the typical schematics at any time by clicking the View button.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 151
Schematics
When this typical schematic is used to create a schematic of a particular motor, the macros will be
replaced with specific data from that particular motor.
Create a Schematic Drawing in SmartPlant Electrical
Creation of a drawing block file (sym, dwg or dgn), using the Electrical Index the integrated
SmartPlant Electrical Catalog Manager or by using any of the following independent software:
SmartSketch, Autocad or MicroStation. In the block file, the user will draw its graphics (as
expected to appear with the Electrical Index correct displacement from page origin) and in
addition set of required Smart Text labels or “macros”, later on, to be replaced by SmartPlant
Electrical system with relevant data from the SmartPlant Electrical database, according to the
attached object.
Create a new typical block item in the Reference Data Explorer .
Edit the new typical block item properties, to attach it with a relevant drawing block file (one or
more).
Create a new typical schematics item in the Reference Data Explorer.
Edit the new typical schematics properties to attach it with a relevant the Reference Data

Set each typical block sequence (in case two or more blocks of same item type are used that
typical schematic e.g. two Control Station blocks etc).
Assign a typical schematics to a load the Electrical Index the through the profile or through the
pop up menu:

In case macros have not been resolved, you may want to investigate more indepth:
In case there is equipment related to the load and do not have macros on the
typical schematic used, you can find it in the Unresolved Items list:
The following schematics and the Electrical Index relevant graphical blocks
can be exercised:
Schematics of Motor Type A, a standard motor with a control station, circuit.
154 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Schematics
Generating Schematics in Batch Mode
You can generate your schematics in batch by simply selecting a number of motors the
Electrical Index the in the tabular editor or in the lower pane of the Electrical Index:
The following dialog box appears:
You can save the generated schematics as external CAD files in any commercially
available CAD format and have them printed on the fly.
Macros
You place macros on each block (or symbol) to retrieve relevant information from the
database. The macro name describes where (what table/attribute) it will find the
information.If you place a Macro called ‘Motor.ItemTag’ in a symbol or block, then
create a Schematic (or SLD that uses that symbol), the program will replace the macro
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 155
Schematics
with the ‘Data’ in the database from the table ‘Motor’, attribute ‘ItemTag’. This
particular Macro happens to be the attribute that contains the name of the motor. So,
when this Macro is placed in block (or symbol), and a Schematic (or SLD) is created for
a particular motor, the program gets the name of the motor and places it in the drawing.
The formatting of the text put in the drawing is the same as the formatting of the Macro.
Macro Syntax
The macro text has to contain the SmartPlant Electrical item name, its required
property name, and a sequence number, according to the following syntax:
&[ItemTypeName].[Property].[Sequence]
For example, to specify a name (item tag) of a motor, the text label has to be:
&Motor.ItemTag.1
If a particular block contains several items of the same item type (that is, several
cables, control stations, and so on), you have to use the sequence number to
ensure item uniqueness.
Annotations and Redlining
•
You can mark up schematic drawings using text or symbols as
annotations. The software saves annotations in the same layer as the
graphical elements of the drawing
•
Redlining appears in a separate drawing layer and you can hide and
display redlining as you require. If a drawing has more than one sheet,
you can create redlining and hide or display it independently for each
sheet. Therefore, while working in redlining mode, you cannot access any
items in the main drawing layer. The software saves the drawing with the
redlining items. When opening schematic that contains redlining items,
the software automatically displays the drawing in redlining mode. You
can switch back to regular mode and modify the drawing as needed. The
software saves the existing redlining items regardless of whether you
open the drawing in redlining mode or not. You can add text, symbols,
lines, circles, rectangles, and watermarks as redlining.

Associating Documents
You define a document reference by adding a reference to the list of document references. You
can then associate this reference with an external file. The software adds this association by
storing the file path in the database.
After you define external document references, you select one or more electrical items and
associate them with external documents. You can associate an electrical item with a document
reference or with an external file that is linked to the document reference. The software allows
you to associate single or multiple electrical items with the same external document. Also, you
can associate the same external file with multiple items in the software.

The idea is to take the Excel templates, that were created in the classic report engine as plant
report and use them as the source for generating or declaring project reports. The procedure
involves what is called Report Registration- meaning, to take an existing Excel template report
and to transform it into a Project Document.

Batch Assignment of Control Station Cables
When we apply profiles to a set of motors which are connected to feeders, this operation results in creation of a set
of control stations with the Electrical Index related control and instrumentation cables. The “from” side of these
cables remains unassociated and you have to connect them manually. Assigning each one to the same feeder circuit
which feeds the motor can become a very time consuming process.
We have ability to automate this procedure as follows:
1.Close Smart Plant Electrical. Open Options Manager, under General Settings, set the Connect Cables of
Control or Instrumentation to Equipment Circuit to Yes.
Save the change in the option manager, and reopen Smart Plant Electrical.
2.Consequently, applying a profile or control station options to a motor that is connected to a feeder
automatically associates the control station cables with the motor feeder, as shown below:
2.1. Select motor M-100
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 175
Miscellaneous Features
2.2.Apply the typical control station, ‘Start-Stop Station type A’
2.3.After applying the typical control station to the motor, the software create new control station and 2
cables (control and grounding).
The ‘From’ side of the control cable is connected to the motor feeder circuit.
176 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
However, this feature doesn’t include grounding cables. This category will not be routed to the circuits.
The other variations of this feature is described in the following paragraph:
If the motor has control stations and then after that is connected to a feeder, once the motor is connected
to the feeder all the related cables of the control stations will be automatically associated with that feeder
circuit (except for the grounding).
Create a motor with a control station and cables. After creating them, have the motor dragged to a feeder
circuit
Observe that the control and instrumentation cables of the control station have the “from” side connected
to the circuit.
In batch, selecting a set of control stations, using a Batch command, “Associate cables with Main
equipment feeder circuit” will result in having all the cables connected to the feeder circuit of the
Electrical Index related main items.

Transfer Switches
Transfer switches are 2 way manual, non-automatics or automatic switches, that are
used to switch or transfer an essential load from a power source to another, backup
power source.
Automatic Transfer Switches are an integral part of the power generation process,
allowing smooth and immediate transfer of electrical current between multiple
sources and the load. When the generator is operating, the transfer switch prevents
dangerous feedback of current to the utility’s system. It also ensures that different
180 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
power sources are fully synchronized before the Electrical Index power is combined
or loads are transferred, which is imperative for safe operation.
The transfer switch senses when utility power is interrupted, and starts up the
generator if the utility power remains absent. In about five to ten seconds, when the
generator is producing full power, the transfer switch disconnects the load from the
utility and connects it to the generator, restoring electricity to the load. The transfer
switch continues to monitor utility power, and when it is restored, switches the load
from the generator back to the utility. Once the generator is disconnected, it goes
through a cool-down routine and is automatically shut down.
These devices are standalone, usually housed in cabinets or mounted on wall, have 2
inputs to accept the mains and backup power source and one output, which connects
to one of the switch inputs.
The transfer of the power from input 1 to input 2 can be done the Electrical Index
the manually, switching the load from one to a second power source, or
automatically, via a monitoring and protection circuitry that senses a loss in power in
one of the sources and then switches to the alternate power source.
A new subfolder exists now under Power Distribution Boards:
The equipment type for this item will be set to Transfer switch:
The operation in the Electrical Engineer is as regular bus with 2 incomers, and each
incomer will have to be dragged under its own parent power source.
For example, a transfer switch that accepts power from a generator and the second
power source from Offsite power:
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 181
Miscellaneous Features
This will be presented in the SLD as follows:
The following issues should be noted though:
As these items are basically PDB’s, they are filtered out in SPEL load summary
reports.
Also, the All Feeders report and Batch load assignment will consider the Electrical
Index circuits as being in a transparent mode, and the algorithm of the roll up will
roll the connected loads downstream the incomers, provided the following property of
the circuits are not set to Disconnected.
Setting one of its incomers to Connected will turn the other incomer into connected,
and vice versa.
In case the circuit mode is in Disconnected mode, the roll up will stop and not drill
down further.
182 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
Some other notes:
•
Transfer switches will not be shown as possible PDB’s in the Feeder
tabs and will be filtered out
•
In case a load is connected via a Transfer switch, the transfer switch
name, its bus and outlet will be shown in the Feeder tab as the feeder
of the load
•
The Batch load assignment will not account for a load connected via a
transfer switch in Normal mode. In All feeder mode the transfer switch
will act as regular PDB, and any load connected downstream via it,
will be accounted for, provided circuits are not in “disconnected”
mode.

sources, a Primary and an Alternate, as follows:
Or:
Or,
The user needs to define a second or alternate power source for an electrical
equipment by selecting the equipment in the electrical engineer, that has one main
power source already defined:
184 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
This command will invoke a second Electrical engineer instance, from which user
will select the alternate power source.
The following conditions should be met for this operation to be successful:
The equipment is not already connected to an alternate feeder
The destination power source is a valid parent (power cable, feeder circuit, etc)
Exercise:
In this exercise we shall learn and accomplish the following:
•
How to connect a variable frequency drive to a main power source,
coming from a VFD feeder circuit.
•
How to connect a second power source supplying the VFD from a
power transformer.
•
Generate a single line diagram for this configuration.
•
How to dissociate the second power source.
•
Switching and modifying the second power source.
Step 1 - Connect the VFD to the Main Power Source
Create VFD-1 and drag it to under a feeder circuit via a power cable
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 185
Miscellaneous Features
Step 2 - Connect a Second, Alternate Power Source for VFD-1
Let us prepare a second power source for the VFD-1 by creating a new feeder branch
from another bus through a transformer, as in the following picture:
Right-click on VFD-1 and select “Add alternate power source..” :
This will open a second instance of the Electrical Engineer that we shall use to
navigate to the second power source:
186 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
Select VFD Alternate source in the Alternate Power source engineer and click OK
The result will be as follows:
The “#” sign indicates that this is an alternate power source branch
If we look at the VFD common properties:
In the Feeder data tab:
And in the Alternate Tab:
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 187

Step 3 - Generate an SLD for This Configuration
For the dual power source equipment to show properly, a new symbol must exist for
the item type, named as the original but with Alt added to the name. In our case it
would be “VariableFrequencyDriveAlt.sym”
Note: You may have to adjust the result to optimize the layout
Step 4 - Change the Alternate Source
In the electrical engineer, select the VFD-1 Feeder cable, right-click:
This will open once more the Alternate Power source screen, and allow you to
navigate to an alternate feeder:
188 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
Step 5 - Dissociatie the Alternate Power Source
Dissociation of the alternate power source is possible only at the final element itself,
in our case, it is the VFD:
Rules
The following rules will apply:
•
Case A - Equipment has both Primary and Alternate power source
and alternate is connected via a cable or a longer multi item branch
The instance that connected to Primary power source can be dragged or
dissociated as usual. All operations on the items with regards to his feeder will be
assumed as operations on its Primary power source.
To edit/change the Alternate Power source will be as follows:
•
The instance of "equipment" that is connected to an Alternate PS can
only be dissociated in the engineer (the system will identify the
Alternate power source from the Primary). User will have to select the
item in the engineer and dissociate. The only place along the chain of
the feeder that can be broken (dissociation taking place) by the user
is the equipment itself and not any of its branch items.
SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide 189
Miscellaneous Features
•
The "Cable" (or any item in the feeder chain), connecting between
Alternate PS and "equipment" cannot be dissociated or dragged.
•
For re-connecting of the branch to another alternate PS the user will
have to use again the response Engineer window.
•
Case B - Equipment is connected to alternate power source only, no
Primary is connected
"Equipment" and its "Cables or branch items" (if exists) are connected to
Alternate Power Source only.
•
All actions that are not using the “Add Alternate power source”
command will be interpreted by the system as regular operations on
the Primary power source, so, Dragging "equipment" to any other
branch will add a main power source, leaving alternate PS untouched.
•
Dragging or dissociating of "Cable" in an Alternate power source
branch is not allowed. The "Cable" can be re-connected using response
window.
•
Case C - Equipment has no power source at all, just connected to a
feeder cable (after apply for example)
"Equipment" doesn't have any feeding equipment but has a "parent Cable or
something else". "Equipment" can be connected to Alternate PS using response
window, "Cable" can be dragged to any valid power source creating a new main
power source for the "Motor"
Delete an Item that Feeds an Alternate Power Source
The system does not allow you to delete an item that is in the path of the alternate
power source feeding electrical equipment, only after the electrical equipment has
been dissociated from its immediate upstream item that feeds it.
Dissociate Alternate Power Sources
The dissociation of the alternate power source will be also from the engineer, by the
use of the “Dissociate” command.
Dissociation will be possible only at the final element and not along any of its
feeder items..
Dissociating primary source will not affect its alternate and vice versa.
190 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
Rules in Operations that Involve Circuits
All the operations and activities that deal with circuits on equipment will be acting on
the main feeder and not on the alternate circuit.
Associating an item to a alternate source
The alternate source will not be required to match the last applied typical circuit of
the item.
Applying typical circuit
Applying typical circuits on a dual input connected item will affect only its main
feeder circuit, not the alternate circuit.
Single line diagrams
For the purpose of proper handling in the SLD, the dual input equipment would need
to have a special symbol that will have 3 connection points, to handle both the 2
inputs ( loads, instruments and cabinets) and 2 inputs + one output for the converting
equipment types.
The 3rd connection point of the symbol will be dedicated for the Alternate Power
source
The SLD algorithm will position the dual input item so that its main feeder point will
be positioned first, and the system will run the connector from its alternate feeder to
the alternate connection point at the equipment.
Load Summary reports
Since the “All feeder report “ load summary may count the load twice in case the load
is fed from 2 different user will have to disconnect the circuit by setting the Circuit
mode parameter to disconnect.
In case user doesn’t do that, the load summary will count the load twice.
The drill down report will assume that circuit is connected unless
CircuitMode=Disconnect
Batch load assignment
The batch load assignment, when operated in Normal mode (not drill down), will not
count the load in case the circuit is feeding the load as alternate power source. The
load will be accounted for in batch load assignment only for circuits that feed the
loads as primary power sources.
The All Feeder mode will take the load into account in both cases, provided the
alternate power source feeder circuit is not in disconnected mode

Earth Loop Impedance Calculations in Cable Sizing
The Earth loop impedance is defined as the total resistance seen by the source of
current when clearing a faulty current to the earth. The earth loop impedance is an
important safety factor since it determines what will be the highest possible potential
at the point of the fault to earth. IEC regulations restrict this voltage to be no higher
than 50 volts, therefore, EPC are requested to calculate this value on a per cable basis
and make sure that the protective device for the circuit, fuse or circuit breaker
protection values and settings are such that nor time nor earth potential will exceed
codes, and will be able to clear the faulty current in a predetermined time.
The calculation is done on a per cable basis and it includes both the cable armor earth
impedance ( in case the armor is the earthling path) and any external to the cable
impedance that is present from the power source through the final load and back to
earthing point.
The following illustration shows how a short circuit current flows through a earth
fault:

Miscellaneous Features
In order to calculate the earth loop impedance user will select the Earth Loop
Impedance tab of the power cable Common Properties:
The calculation is based on the following formula:
The calculation is the Electrical Index the based on the earth path formed by the

A protection relay is now a configurable device that could perform as a multiple
functions protection device, as found in the industry.
Such devices may range from simple Overcurrent trip relay, that its sole function is to
measure the current flowing at a certain location and trip in case the current exceeds
certain pre-set limit, to a combination of various functions.
The following user may now predefine standard relay functions and use them to
create protection relay functionality, as follows:

The reason for that is since Meters and protection relays can be physically located
separately from the circuits they serve, on the PDB front panel, within the cell, or
elsewhere.
Note
•
When inserted in circuits, metering equipment become circuit internals
in all respects. However, please note the following:
•
Current and Potential transformers become inline internals, with
regular Sequence in group functionality and will be shown in SLD as
such.

Automating Cable to Drum Assignment
Let us create 2 drums, one for 4mm2 and second for 35mm2, 3 cores.
At this point in time we shall do an automatic cable to drum assignment
204 SmartPlant Electrical Basic User’s Training Guide
Miscellaneous Features
This procedure can be automated using the following User Interface:
Include assigned cables means that we wish to do a complete revamp in the design
and start the assignment from scratch. This will result in first dissociation of the
assigned cables from the Electrical Index drums.
Create new drums will create new drums in case the operation fills up all existing
drums and still cables are left to be assigned, otherwise, these cables will be left
untouched waiting for new drums to be created manually
Delete empty drums in case the auto assignment shuffles results in empty drums,
they will be deleted
Select all reference cables will handle all the cables of all types in the project,
otherwise, only for the selected type of cable
Select all pulling areas will perform the operation for all pulling areas, otherwise,
only for the selected one.
The algorithm works as follows:
Based on the defined cable set ( all reference cables, include assigned cables), the
system will organize them in an descending actual length order, from the longest
cable down to the shortest, per cable type and per pulling area set, as defined in the
check boxes options.
The system will also set the same order to the existing drums of the same reference
cable, starting from the drum that has the longest free cable available, to the shortest (
free cable on drum would mean the maximum cable on drum figure – total cable
assigned to the drum, including spare).
Then, the system will start, per pulling area and per cable type assigning the longest
cable to the drum which has the longest free spare (provided it doesn’t exceed the
maximum cable on drum figure)

Cable Routing Validation Rules
The following validations are carried out while performing cable routing:
•
Segregation level of the cables and route must match.
•
For segments of uncovered trays the tray fill validation validates that:
The total allowable width (tray width times the fill factor) is greater
than the total accumulated outside diameters of the cables assigned to
the segment.
•
•
For all other segments, the basis of the validation is on the allowable
area of the segment is not less than the accumulated cables area.
•
Modifying cables outside diameter or weight per length of the cable
will be validated against the segment fill
•
Modifying cableway width, depth, diameter or the tray cover will be
validated against the segment fill. System will reject a property change
that will result in overfill, unless, the “Allow overfill” flag is set.

to the primary:
The connection group defines the primary, secondary and the phase shift between
them. D represents delta and Y represents star or Y. The number represents the phase
shift in integers, each unit representing 30 degrees. The phase shift in degrees in this
case will be 30x6=180 degrees phase shift.
The “Winding fed from” defines if the phase shift is related to the primary or one of
the secondaries.
