Electrical components

 

In the realization of the project of a photovoltaic system, BlueSol allows you to define the electrical components which make up the DC and AC electrical panels. The component data can be read, edited and stored in an archive that you can reuse the data. On each component, the program is able to perform the electrical verification so that it can propose the right components with which to make the electrical panel. The program handles the following electrical components:

 

Cable

Surge arrester

Disconnecting switch

Switch

Fuse

Diode

Transformer

 

To specify an electrical component you need to use the button with the image of the electrical symbol, that appears in the page Electrical protection group of the electrical panels DC and AC and of the Electricity grid. Then you opens the dialog definition of the electrical component where you can specify the characteristic data, which can also be read from the archive, if any, or manually entered and then saved in the database to be used later.

The archives of the electrical components, as well as are provided at the time of installation of the program, contain a limited number of products. The purpose of these archives is not to provide a complete set of these components, which would be difficult to keep up to date. The aim is to provide a powerful and integrated tool to manage the data of the electrical components that the designer most commonly uses, then the user will enter the data in the design phase and store them in the database to be used by future projects.

The reading window of the data of the electrical components in the archive has a field called Verification that indicates with the coloring green or red if the component is verified whether or not inserted in the specified position of the electrical panel.
