1 The clever way to dimension power distribution Easy, fast and safe simaris design BASIC

2 Concentrate on the essential with SIMARIS design basic It has never been easy to dimension a power distribution system for buildings. But it has never been more complex than today. To empower you with the best assets in the existing market situation, Siemens supports you with an excellent software tool. SIMARIS design basic is a dimensioning tool for power distribution systems in commercial, industrial and institutional buildings from medium voltage to the wall outlet. With this tool electrical networks can be dimensioned automatically with a minimum of manual entries. So you will have more time for the actual specification of your concept. Why is it so easy? The handling and the user interface is very simple and it will not take you long to get the idea of how SIMARIS design basic works. Thanks to its convenient network editing and graphics display functions, SIMARIS design basic can be used without the slightest effort. From its contents, this tool offers a scope of functionality that facilitates dimensioning considerably. In the planning stage you can dimension the entire supply circuit with SIMARIS design basic on the basis of real products. In the implementation stage, this helps to avoid extra costs arising from badly coordinated systems. Suitable components and distribution systems are selected automatically. You can focus on what s important and needn t hunt for product data in a stack of catalogues. Every configuration of an electric power distribution is subject to many changes and adaptations both in the planning and in the implementation stage. SIMARIS design basic integrates each modification into the supply concept and automatically checks it for compliance with the relevant standards and regulations. As a last step a comfortable documentation helps you to succeed with your power distribution projects.

3 Easy, fast and safe dimensioning Fast implementation SIMARIS design basic speeds up your entire planning process by taking over a great variety of complex calculations. It helps you to minimize the time for equipment selection and sizing. The products required for configuration are automatically selected this saves you time-consuming research in catalogues input errors are quickly corrected, and modifications easily integrated in the whole dimensioning process. Consequently, your engineering expense for the overall planning of power distribution system is reduced. Since the complete project can easily be exported to a RTF, PDF or DXF file (network graphics, equipment parts lists, selectivity diagrams), you ll finish in no time. Working with SIMARIS design basic is so easy that this also saves you an enormous amount of time see for yourself how fast you ll have your network graphics created. Safe result Based on the requirements of the specific power distribution system, SIMARIS design basic safely and reliably dimensions a system solution from a broad product portfolio, in compliance with all relevant standards and reflecting the present state of technology. Thanks to a configuration with real product parameters, projects planned with SIMARIS design basic can be implemented safely. Those consultants who choose to plan with SIMARIS design basic prepare themselves with the optimum. Should any questions about dimensioning with SIMARIS design basic arise, don t hesitate to contact your Siemens area representative. You can find his name on Functional highlights: Automatic dimensioning of all network components from the medium voltage to the wall outlet on the basis of real products Visual selectivity evaluation using the device tripping curves Network diagram with comfortable graphical editor function Integration of switch disconnectors and busbar trunking systems with tap-off units (for power distribution) Rising mains cables included Feeder supply management: Free definition of network operating modes (power system according to connection to earth) and switching conditions in the proximity of the feeder

4 Dimensioning and cost saving EASY, because electrical networks can be dimensioned automatically with a minimum of manual entries. Handling and project definition very user-friendly Detailed technical knowledge of products and systems not required Changes can easily be adapted during the planning and implementation process Comprehensive output options: detailed device parts lists, selectivity diagrams and network graphics in several formats (RTF, PDF and DXF) FAST, because definite results can be presented within a minimum of time. Fast and reliable execution of numerous complex calculations Quick adaptability to a changing use of facilities or system expansion Fast and efficient automatic selection and sizing of equipment Integrated product database is automatically accessed SAFE, because... dimensioning takes place according to established technical rules and standards (IEC). Automatic verification of planning contents and signaling of rule violations Representation of device envelope curves for selectivity evaluation Modifiable device settings for protection, energy report signaling impact of modifications on energy balance High planning and cost reliability

5 Totally Integrated Power : integrated power distribution from medium voltage to the wall outlet. Totally Integrated Power is based on integration in planning and configuring electrical networks, on matched interface-optimized products and systems, as well as on communication and software modules for the power distribution systems connectivity to industrial automation and building services automation. SIMARIS design basic is the core of this platform concept for integrated dimensioning of power distribution in commercial, industrial and institutional buildings. To sum up: Totally Integrated Power gives advantages to everyone involved in the project: to you, the electrical consultant, and to the investors, installing engineers and users.
