Dynamic‌‌Motor‌‌Starting‌  ‌
This‌  ‌module‌  ‌is‌  ‌a ‌ ‌robust‌  ‌and‌  ‌easy‌  ‌to‌  ‌use‌  ‌tool‌  ‌for‌  ‌assessing‌  ‌system‌  ‌voltage‌  ‌dips‌  ‌and‌‌
 
acceleration‌‌times‌‌of‌‌motors,‌‌using‌‌a‌‌variety‌‌of‌‌starting‌‌methods.‌  ‌

The‌  ‌selection‌  ‌of‌  ‌the‌  ‌motor‌  ‌to‌  ‌be‌‌

  started‌‌   along‌‌
  with‌‌
  the‌‌   starting‌‌
  method‌‌   is‌‌
  defined‌‌  in‌‌
  a ‌‌
grid-style‌  ‌study‌  ‌dialog‌  ‌box.‌  ‌The‌  ‌study‌  ‌dialog‌  ‌box‌  ‌also‌  ‌gives‌  ‌the‌  ‌user‌  ‌the‌  ‌option‌  ‌to‌‌

Load‌‌balancing‌  ‌
The‌  ‌load‌  ‌balancing‌  ‌analysis‌  ‌is‌  ‌used‌  ‌to‌  ‌determine‌  ‌which‌  ‌loads‌  ‌or‌  ‌lateral‌  ‌taps‌  ‌can‌  ‌be‌‌
 
reconnected‌‌   to‌‌

 to‌‌

 losses‌‌ or‌‌
 balance‌‌  the‌‌
 current,‌‌ the‌‌
 
load,‌  ‌or‌  ‌the‌  ‌voltage.‌  ‌It‌  ‌reports‌  ‌a ‌ ‌series‌  ‌of‌  ‌individual‌  ‌changes‌  ‌to‌  ‌the‌  ‌network‌  ‌and‌  ‌the‌‌

  and‌‌
  size‌‌
  of‌‌
  shunt‌‌
  capacitor‌‌
  banks‌‌
 
to‌  ‌reduce‌  ‌kW‌  ‌losses‌  ‌or‌  ‌to‌  ‌improve‌  ‌the‌  ‌system‌  ‌voltage‌  ‌while‌  ‌maintaining‌  ‌a ‌ ‌desired‌‌
 
power‌  ‌factor.‌  ‌The‌  ‌user‌  ‌can‌  ‌provide‌  ‌guidance‌  ‌regarding‌  ‌the‌  ‌size,‌  ‌number‌  ‌and‌‌    ‌
 ‌
appropriate‌  ‌locations‌  ‌of‌  ‌the‌  ‌capacitor‌  ‌banks,‌  ‌and‌  ‌approve‌  ‌whether‌  ‌the‌  ‌recommended‌‌  
banks‌  ‌should‌  ‌be‌  ‌installed‌  ‌or‌  ‌not.‌  ‌Alternatively,‌  ‌the‌‌
  analysis‌‌
  can‌‌
  provide‌‌
  an‌‌  exhaustive‌‌  Induction‌‌Motor‌‌Starting‌  ‌
list‌  ‌of‌  ‌all‌  ‌possible‌  ‌capacitor‌  ‌placement‌  ‌locations‌  ‌with‌  ‌associated‌  ‌impacts‌  ‌on‌  ‌voltages‌‌
 
The‌  ‌Induction‌  ‌Motor‌  ‌Starting‌  ‌analysis‌  ‌takes‌  ‌into‌  ‌account‌  ‌the‌  ‌inertial‌  ‌effects‌  ‌of‌  ‌the‌‌
 
and‌‌kW‌‌losses.‌  ‌

 even‌‌ more‌‌
 powerful‌‌  when‌‌  coupled‌‌

 ‌
The‌‌substations‌‌can‌‌be‌‌modeled‌‌in‌‌detail‌‌using‌‌the‌‌extensive‌‌CYME‌‌equipment‌‌library‌‌  
(buses,‌‌cables,‌‌transformers,‌‌switches,‌‌circuit‌‌breakers,‌‌protection‌‌devices,‌‌etc.).‌‌The‌‌
 
user‌‌can‌‌also‌‌create‌‌new‌‌components‌‌based‌‌on‌‌the‌‌very‌‌detailed‌‌templates‌‌of‌‌the‌‌
