ARC FLASH EV
EVALUATION
Design safer power systems while ensuring compliance with NEC,
OSHA, NFPA, IEEE, NESC, and CSA standards
Fully integrated with Short Circuit, Over-Current Coordination,
and Equipment Evaluation modules
Evaluate alternatives quickly and easily to establish an optimal design
Improve safety margins with user-definable arcing fault tolerance
Save time by automatically generating arc flash labels and work permits
Determine required PPE levels instantly
Increase flexibility by creating custom labels in any size with
user-defined logos, text, comments, and field placement.
Avoid potential fines, post productivity, and increased insurance
and litigation costs.
Compare results from multiple project scenarios in a single table

ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE FROM SKM
"The main advantage with
Power*Tools for Windows is
its user-friendliness. PTW is
easy to use and the readyto-use standard models
enable you to speed up
your work. Changing data is
simple and makes evaluating
different cases very easy."

DAPPER® Integrated Electrical Analysis Software. Comprehensive
Three Phase Short-Circuit Studies, Load Flow Study, Demand Load
Study, Feeder and Transformer Sizing Study, Impact Motor Starting
Study, and Load Schedules. (Unbalanced Studies also available)
CAPTOR® Time-Overcurrent Coordination. Graphical Time-Overcurrent
Coordination. Integrated with one-lines, short-circuit modules, Equipment
Evaluation, and Arc Flash. Comprehensive protective device library.
AUTO COORDINATION & EVALUATION Instantly identify
coordination and protection issues by evaluating each
equipment for adherence to the National Electric Code (NEC).
Automatically make changes to resolve violations.
CABLE AMPACITY Accurate calculation of ampacity and
temperature rise in various power cable installations. Based
on and fully compliant with IEC 60287.
A_FAULT ANSI Short-Circuit Study. Three Phase Short-Circuit Study
based on the ANSI/IEEE C37 Standards. Separate solutions for low,
medium and high voltage systems and for symmetrical, momentary
