EXAMPLE#1 – BASIC MSB:

In this example, we received the following SLD to be designed:

ExampleOne1


From the SLD electrical connections , we identify the quantity of Branches.

We will need MAIN BRANCH, BRANCH1, and BRANCH2:

ExampleOne2


1. We proceed to Streamgineer and create a new project. SEE START-A-DESIGN

2. From now onwards, all the selections will be from the Design Parameters.

3. We specify the Vertical Busbar Type:

SETTINGS -> VERTICAL BUSBAR LOCATION

ExampleOne3

 

 

 

 

4. Now we select all the relevant parameters for our MAIN BRANCH:

MAIN DETAILS -> GENERAL

The Key Parameters here are:

Main Amp Rating = 1600A

Branch Quantity = 2

Revenue Meter State = NSW

Incoming Supply Type = Main

Incoming Cable Entry = TOP

ExampleOne4

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5. Now we select all the relevant parameters for our MAIN Device:

MAIN DETAILS -> GENERAL

The Key Parameters here are:

Main Device Type = MCCB

Main Device Model = Electronic

Main Device Frame Size = 1600A

Main Device Amp Rating = 1600A

Main Device Revenue Meter State = NSW

ExampleOne5

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At this point we have already completed our MAIN BRANCH.

We can verify the design thus far by clicking the UPDATE button on the Top Right:


ExampleOne6

 

 

 

 

 

The General Arrangement looks like this so far:

ExampleOne7

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6. Next we select the relevant parameters for BRANCH1:

Let’s have another look at the SLD to see BRANCH1 and refresh our memory:

ExampleOne8

For BRANCH1 we require the following:

2 x 630A MCCB

3 x 160A MCCB

We can immediately identify we will have two (2) Groups in our branch.

(Group1) – 2 x 630A MCCB

(Group2) – 3 x 160A MCCB

BRANCH1 Main Device is not needed.

6a. Let’s first add our BRANCH1-Group1 components:

BRANCH1 -> MODULE QUICK SELECTION

The Key Parameters here are:

Group1 Device Type = MCCB

Group1 Device Frame Size = 630A

Group1 Device Amp Rating = 630A

Group1 Device Quantity = 2

ExampleOne9

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6b. Now let’s add our BRANCH1-Group2 components:

BRANCH1 -> MODULE QUICK SELECTION

The Key Parameters here are:

Group1 Device Type = MCCB

Group1 Device Frame Size = 160A

Group1 Device Amp Rating = 160A

Group1 Device Quantity = 3

ExampleOne10

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6c. Now let’s UPDATE our design and see what it looks like so far:

ExampleOne11

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Things are looking pretty good :)

So far our SLD looks like this:

ExampleOne12

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7. Next we select the relevant parameters for BRANCH2:

Let’s have another look at the SLD to see BRANCH2 and refresh our memory:

ExampleOne13

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For BRANCH2 we require the following:

1 x 630A ISOLATOR with Revenue Meter

2 x 160A MCCB

We can immediately identify we will need a BRANCH2 Main Device and one (1) Group in our branch.

(Branch2 – Main Device) – 1 x 630A ISOLATOR with Revenue Meter

(Group1) – 2 x 160A MCCB

7a. Let’s first add our BRANCH2 Main Device:

ExampleOne14

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7b. Now let’s add our BRANCH2-Group1 components:

ExampleOne15

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7c. Finally let’s UPDATE and see how things are looking:

ExampleOne16

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And here’s our SLD:

ExampleOne1
