Features

Electrical System Design and Application is a textbook that introduces the learner to designing electrical systems with the aid of Volts^™ by Dolphins Software. The textbook starts with an overview of the software and how it can help create error-free designs for today's complex electrical systems. The learner is taken through a tutorial of the software that covers the basic steps involved in creating an electrical system. Step-by-step procedures assist the learner in creating proper electrical designs for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Each chapter concludes with an activity designed to test the learner's knowledge of the software.

Learners preparing for a career in the electrical industry will find this software an effective tool for understanding the processes and parameters of designing electrical systems. Established electricians and engineers will increase their design productivity and minimize errors.

Volts^™ functions include the following:

• Circuit load analysis
• Dynamic panel layout
• Automated panel schedules
• Conduit and feeder schedules
• One-line riser diagrams
• Voltage-drop calculations
• Arc flash analysis
