The user can analyze different system configurations and measure the improvement in reliability indices. The predictive model can be calibrated based on historical data. The module computes reliability indices for the overall system and their corresponding protection zones, as well as customer point indices. Learn more about Long-term dynamics load flow analysis It also enables the time-domain simulation of smart inverters and battery energy storage systems. Device controls are included in the analysis, including tap changers, shunt capacitors and switchable shunt banks.
This module performs time series long-term dynamics load flow analysis in the seconds to minutes range, of the variable phenomena introduced by distributed energy resources. Learn more about Network disturbance assessment Analysis is based on the standard “Technical Rules for the Assessment of Network Disturbance” published by a German-Austrian-Swiss-Czech working group. The network disturbance assessment module evaluates the power quality disturbances produced by equipment on a power source’s signal by determining if the equipment passes different power quality tests. The module executes a comprehensive system impact study that integrates several criteria-based verifications and multiple scenarios in order to flag abnormal conditions. It clearly assesses the impacts of DER interconnections on the distribution system, such as steady-state voltage levels, overloads and reverse power flow. Generation interconnection system impact studies can be executed within minutes with this module.
Seamlessly integrated into the CYME software graphical user interface, the EPRI DRIVE module combines the engineering effort of the EPRI DRIVE engine with CYME’s detailed distribution system model to return hosting capacity calculation results within a familiar environment. Learn more about Integration capacity analysis Integration capacity analysis addresses the interconnection requests by calculating the maximum generation or load capacity that can be installed independently at each point of a distribution system without adversely impacting its reliability and power quality. The module allows the import and display of several maps of different formats, so your users can visualize the distribution system over a comprehensive landbase. Geographic overlay displays raster or vector map images (geographical landbase such as DWG, DXF, SHP, etc) as layers directly underneath your electrical model. With this service, users can locate a substation, a particular feeder, a street corner, or pinpoint the address where a fault occurred.

The module is equipped with robust power flow and short-circuit algorithms to analyze heavily meshed networks. Secondary grid network analysis allows users to model any spot network, secondary grid and detailed network protector relay with complete settings. Learn more about Low-voltage secondary distribution modeling This includes single-phase center-tapped transformers, plex cables, single-phase three-wire LV circuits. The Low-voltage secondary distribution model performs the detailed modeling and simulation of any circuit beyond the distribution transformer. Low-voltage secondary distribution modeling Learn more about the Enhanced substation modeling module The simulations then take into account the effects of these installations on the overall distribution system. This module enables the accurate representation of all major components of a distribution substation as well as any sub-network, such as a vault, a switching cubicle or an industrial facility.
