Transmission Line Design with PLSCADD Software

Introduction:

SOFTNITRO is arranging training course on Overhead Power Transmission Line Design Using PLSCADD software. The power transmission line design & survey plays a very vital role in the optimization of transmission line. The use of internationally recognized PLSCADD Software for better optimization of transmission line can be achieved in short time.

PLS-CADD is the industry standard in overhead line design and is being used by 1600 companies in over 125 countries worldwide. It is the most powerful overhead power line design program. It integrates all aspects of power transmission line design into a single stand-alone program with a simple, logical, consistent interface.

The course will familiarize the attendees with how to use PLS-CADD on a project from start to finish, including survey importing techniques, criteria development, structure designs, conductor sagging, and final Plan & Profile drawing development and plotting. Time will also be allocated to practicing different real projects to give hands on experience to trainees.

Course Objectives:

This course is intended to familiarize the attendees with power transmission line design.
How to use PLS-CADD on a project from start to finish, including survey importing techniques, criteria development, structure designs, conductor sagging, and final plan & profile drawing development and plotting.
To familiarize about the power transmission line survey basics and optimum line route alignment.
Exploring the modern survey tools and field data auditing.
