Dear Student,

Welcome to my tutorial on mastering low voltage power calculations using Simaris Design and Simaris Curves from Siemens – a comprehensive, powerful (and free) software solution for all your electrical design needs!

Why Simaris Design?

Planning an automation project begins with power calculations. This is the first step I take when I embark on a new automation system – to carefully plan and dimension the low voltage power system. Over the years, I've tried various software from leading manufacturers, and I've found that Simaris Design stands out as the best for quick project setup, creating single line diagrams, and generating all necessary documentation.

Key Features of Simaris Design:

• Language Support: Set your workspace and documents to your preferred language.
• Device Categories:
  • System Infeed: Includes transformers and infeeds for emergency power supplies.
  • Distribution Boards: Ranges from busbars to sub-distribution boards.
  • Final Circuits: From general devices, motors (including DOL, softstarter, reverse-duty, and frequency converter), to power outlets and even electric car charging units.

My Experience with Simaris Design:

I've used Simaris in various industries on numerous projects and it has consistently delivered exceptional results. One notable project involved a refrigeration industry application with 715 A of current consumption, involving two softstarters for screw compressors (160kW & 132 kW) and working under extreme conditions – temperatures up to 38°C in summer! With Simaris Design, we successfully dimensioned our protection devices and cables, ensuring a smooth commissioning process.

What You Will Learn:

• The fundamentals of low voltage power calculations.
• How to setup and use Simaris Design effectively.
• Best practices for creating single line diagrams with precision.
• Techniques for outputting comprehensive project documentation.

Course Highlights:

• Step-by-step guidance through the software interface.
• Real-world examples of power calculations in different industries.
• Tips and tricks to optimize your design process.

I highly recommend this software to all electrical engineering professionals. Even if you're not taking this course, I encourage you to explore Simaris Design – it's truly a game-changer in the field.

Conclusion:

My aim is for you to walk away from this course with a deep understanding of how to use Simaris Design for your power calculations. I believe you'll find this course valuable and enjoyable. So, let's dive into the world of electrical design together! 🖥️✨

Don't forget to have fun as you learn, and remember – I'm here to guide you every step of the way.
