Version 22 __full__ — Etap

Expanding beyond low- and medium-voltage systems, ETAP 22 enhances its capabilities for high-voltage (above 15 kV) arc flash analysis. This is particularly beneficial for transmission utilities and heavy industrial plants operating large substations. 3. Digital Twin Technology and Real-Time Operations

At the heart of ETAP Version 22 is the evolution of its technology. ETAP has transitioned from a static simulation tool into a dynamic, real-time reflection of physical power systems.

The Protection and Coordination module in V22 features:

The ETAP library is expanded to include thousands of new protective devices and solar panels.

Instead of manually tweaking protective device settings to reduce high incident energy levels, ETAP 22 introduces automated mitigation wizards. The software analyzes the time-current characteristics (TCC) of upstream breakers and fuses, automatically suggesting optimal settings that balance selective coordination with arc flash safety limits.
