I went through the AutoCad site and found the Autodesk Inventor Simulation Suite. But it seems to me it only works for simulating mechanical loads. I can't find anything about "simulating" those electrical drawings on construction projects...
But isn't AutoCad used only for drafting/drawing? Is the MEP package smart enough to detect for example wrong wiring sizes, not enough clearances, grounding & connection issues, etc..? Can it run such "simulations"?
Ok. I guess I was wrong in putting the T&D part on my question. What about electrical and cabling design for commercial, institutional, and residential buildings? Is there software that checks for compliance against codes and regulations on such design drawings?
Tks for your reply davidbeach. I guess I was refering more to the "customer side". All the wiring and protection equipment after the substation, for either a residential or a commercial load. Is there any software for checking the protection and compliance with codes? Also, if I define this low...
Hi,
What software packages are there for simulating electrical power systems? Is there anything that uses commercially available devices to construct a model? Something that takes those commercial models as inputs and renders a correct wiring diagram for the devices. Maybe something you could...
