ETAP Product Overview

Power System Enterprise Solution


ETAP is the most comprehensive analysis tool for the design, simulation, and operation of generation,
transmission, distribution, and industrial power systems. From straightforward short circuit calculations to
advanced transient stability studies, ETAP is the most flexible fully integrated solution available.

Engineers, operators, and mangers in thousands of companies worldwide put their trust in ETAP; the only high-
impact electrical engineering software to comply with widely accepted and firmly established nuclear quality
assurance standards and regulations with complete Verification & Validation (V&V) of the analysis modules
and library data. The V&V process for ETAP is quite extensive, consisting of thousands of test cases that
encompass each and every calculation module, user interface, persistence, reports, plots, library data, and more.

ETAP modules are categorized or individually listed below. One or any combination of ETAP modules can be
purchased or added to an existing ETAP license. The ETAP Base Package is required per each user license.
Pricing is based on bus level, license type, and the number of copies.
