Hi Ricardo, Thanks for the explanation, really good. I bought some of your courses on Udemy, and it was really helpful, thanks man. Just a question, I'm simulating an isolated system on ETAP composed by 3 equal 2MW 0.4kV generators, connected with a step up transformer 0.4kV/22kV (separately), the output of the 3 transformes go to a comum bus, which fed 3 equaly loads of 2MW. The problem is, when I run the power flow (Newthon Raphson meth.) the first branch presents the operating current higher than the other 2, I've tried a couple of changings, but nothing sorted, have you experienced something similar using ETAP ? Thanks mate.
Hi Lucas. Provided that all the three generators have the same ratings, and that the impedances between the generators and the common bus are the same, they should all feed the same power. There's probably something wrong in your ETAP model causing this. We can go over your model on a one-on-one session to see what the issue is, you can sign up here: www.romeroengineering.co/offers/ZEo7VkVz/checkout

Great video! It was very helpful.
Sir your videos very useful and interesting
Nice video, its help me a lot to learn etap, thank you sir 😂
Is there any similar for LV (600V)?
13.8KV BUS IS A NOMINAL OR THE RATED VOLTAGE ?

easy power software caculate all small or big
etap only good for larger power system. single phase small power etap no calculate details
Which one is the good
