In this study case a single feeder has been defined. A cable sizing calculation can be carried out on this feeder in order to improve the results associated with the feeder coming from load flow calculations against thermal loading, short circuit and voltage constraints. A library of cable types has been provided in the project library.


If recommendation mode is selected the cable sizing tool will select cables from the selected cable type library in order to achieve the optimum solution against the selected constraints. Variations containing the recommended cable changes can be generated and applied and removed as required. The comparing of results mode can be used to evaluate the feeder operation point improvement as a result of the recommendation.
