ETAP 22 introduced enhanced graphical tools specifically for creating localized "paper" labels:
Efficiency is a major focus in ETAP Version 22. The user experience has been streamlined to reduce the number of clicks required to execute complex operations.
Operators can utilize ETAP 22 to run "what-if" predictive simulations based on real-time SCADA data. For example, before opening a tie-breaker for maintenance, an operator can simulate the switching sequence to ensure it will not trigger an overload or voltage collapse elsewhere in the network. This capability also serves as a robust foundation for Operator Training Simulators (OTS). 4. Enhanced Analytical Modules and Performance Upgrades
