WHAT’S NEW IN SYNERGEE VERSION 4.0

WHAT’S NEW IN SYNERGEE  VERSION 4.0
What are the noticeable changes found in synergee 4.0?

With a new environment in the new version of synergee, this tutorial aims to inform everyone and be familiar with the main areas of the SynerGEE application. We will also review the most commonly used toolbar buttons and modes. We will start off by being familiar with the changes in the synerGEE environment.

To successfully model and analyze your electric system especially for loss segregation, you need to fully understand how to use SynerGEE. SynerGEE is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, and a thorough knowledge of its powerful and convenient interface will significantly increase productivity. From little shortcuts to big time-savers, you should take some time to learn about the features provided to optimize your SynerGEE usage.

Ribbon Bar
The ribbon bar, which by far is the most noticeable changes that can be seen in synergee version 4.0 runs along the top of the SynerGEE window, provides quick access to all of SynerGEE’s commands. The ribbon bar is a replacement for menu paths and toolbars buttons. Groups of related functions are first organized by tabs in the ribbon bar and then organized into functional groups.

Quick Access Toolbar
The quick access toolbar is a small toolbar that by default appears in the top-left corner of the SynerGEE window. You can customize the quick access toolbar to include virtually any feature that is available in SynerGEE. The quick access toolbar is a great way to customize Synergee for fast and easy access to the tasks you most commonly perform.

Status Bar
The status bar is located at the bottom of the SynerGEE application. The right end of the status bar shows the name of the current database that is open, the current reporting status (enabled or Disabled) and the analysis year, if multi-year modeling is enabled. You can change the reporting status or the model year by clicking on the respective area in the status bar. In addition, the status bar displays two sets of status codes enclosed in brackets (for example, <GT>). The first set of status codes shows model characteristics, and the second set of status codes shows application settings.

Function Key Shortcuts
The following list describes the function key shortcuts that are available in SynerGEE.

F1 – Opens the Online Help file
F2 – Opens the Select Feeders editor.
F3 – Toggles the map details. This will show or hide the device symbols.
F4 – Opens the Core Results viewer.
F5 – Switches to Default mode.
F6 – Switches to Spatial Query mode.
F7 – Opens the PowerCalc application.
F8 – Closes all open results.
F9 – Opens the Map settings editor.
F10 – Displays hotkeys for the SynerGEE ribbon bar.
F11 – Refreshes the map display.
F12 – Re-runs the last analysis.

Custom Keyboard Shortcuts
SynerGEE includes a custom keyboard shortcut edito that you can use to assign any keyboard shortcut to any available SynerGEE option. Click the down arrow at the right end of the quick access toolbar and select More Commands.

PARTS OF A POWER TRANSFORMER

What are the name of the basic parts of a Power Transformer? We can not deny the fact that only a handful of electrical engineering students are presently familiar with power transformers especially on what it looks like. Unlike a transformer we found in our homes, a power transformer’s appearance and construction is somewhat more complicated. It is not just a simple winding with a primary and secondary terminal although basically any transformer has one. The function that a power transformer plays in an electrical system is very important that an electric utility can not afford to loss it during its operation. Our discussion here will focus more on the basic parts and functions of a power transformer that are usually tangible whenever you go to a substation . Although not all power transformers are identical, nonetheless they all have the following listed parts in which the way of construction may differ.

ELECTRIC MOTOR FRAME SIZE STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS

ELECTRIC MOTOR FRAME SIZE STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS How is electric motor frame size being specified? Motor frame dimensions have been standardized with a uniform frame size numbering system. This system was developed by NEMA and specific frame sizes have been assigned to standard motor ratings based on enclosure, horsepower and speed. The current standardized frames for integral horsepower induction motors ranges from 143T to 445T. These standards cover most motors in the range of one through two hundred horsepower. Typical example of where you can locate the frame is shown in Fig 1.2.D – Frame No. The numbers used to designate frame sizes have specific meanings based on the physical size of the motor. Some digits are related to the motor shaft height and the remaining digit or digits relate to the length of the motor. The rerate, or frame size reduction programs were brought about by advancements in motor technology relating mainly to higher temperature ratings of insulating mate...

ELECTRIC MOTOR NAMEPLATE SPECIFICATIONS

How do we interpret an electric motor nameplate? Motor standards are established on a country by country basis.Fortunately though, the standards can be grouped into two major categories: NEMA and IEC (and its derivatives). In North America, the National Electric Manufacturers Association (NEMA) sets motor standards, including what should go on the nameplate (NEMA Standard MG 1-10.40 "Nameplate Marking for Medium Single-Phase and Polyphase Induction Motors").
