ElecSimHub

Electrical power system simulator

ElecSimHubDesign the scheme, run the studies, export the documents.

ElecSimHub is a free, no-sign-up browser workspace for LV/MV power-system design: draw a single-line topology, run the studies on the real engine, then export the drawings, the bill of materials and the design report. This site carries the simulator and its engineering calculators only — nothing leaves the browser until you press run.

The configurator opens with a worked example already loaded — switch between the industry scenarios, then bring that same scheme into the simulator.

Get a quotation — selection and pricing, straight through

Three entry points turn one saved scheme into something you can actually send: a recommended line list with prices, a stated price basis, and a bilingual tender package you hand over as one ZIP.

Prices come from the engine price library — this site does not print invented figures. Selection and quotation read a scheme you saved in the simulator or in the configurator; your workspace id stays in this browser for a year, no sign-up. Anything the price library cannot price stays marked as unpriced instead of being rounded.

Three tools, one workspace

They share one scheme: the topology the simulator runs, the configurator drafted and the deliverables package exports are the same object.

How it works — three steps

No sign-up. Nothing is sent anywhere until you press run, and a repeated run costs no second request.

  1. 01

    Get a scheme

    Start from an industry scenario in the configurator, or draw the topology yourself on the canvas and give the equipment its nameplate ratings.

  2. 02

    Run the studies

    Load flow, IEC 60909 short circuit, protection coordination, N-1, power quality, motor starting and economics — each study runs on the scheme you have open.

  3. 03

    Export the package

    Drawings (SVG / DXF), the bill of materials, protection and cable schedules, the chaptered report — plus a read-only link.

01 · What it computes

What the engine can compute — the full list

Every line below is a real workbench page, listed group by group from the same source as the left-hand directory. Nothing ready in the directory is missing here, and nothing here is unreachable from the directory.

Design input

    Twenty-chapter calculation report with conclusions, assumptions and traceability, exported as HTML.

  • Deliverablessub-tool

    The deliverables desk: every output of this scheme in one place, shareable by signed link.

1 entries are still in build

These directory entries have no page yet, so they are kept apart: not clickable, not counted as ready, and never mixed into the ready list above.

  • Schemes & versionsin build

    Scheme library, version chain (save / save-as), A/B pick and signed share links.

Coverage: every count on this page is read from nav-config (the same file the left-hand directory renders) when the page loads — no hand-written numbers, no second list to keep in sync.

02 · What it delivers

What ElecSimHub delivers

Every study above can leave the browser as a document. One button turns the scheme you have open into a single package — calculation report, drawing set, quotation, BOM with quantities, compliance checklists and an index — in English and Chinese, assembled in your browser, with no account and no checkout.

  • 66files in one package
  • 2languages in the same package
  • 230 KBpackage size (ZIP)
  • 2.7 sseconds to build, in the browser

Calculation report

2 per language

The chaptered design report — engine sections, conclusions, assumptions and traceability — plus the configurator’s full design document: 2 files per language. Exported as HTML.

Open the report library →

Drawing set with title block

22 per language

Each sheet is exported twice, vector SVG and AutoCAD R12 DXF — 22 files per language. Every sheet carries a title block with project, drawing number, scale, date and the design / checked / approved signature boxes; company name, project data and logo are configurable.

Open the drawing set →

Quotation

1 per language

1 CSV per language: every item with model, specification, quantity, unit price and amount, plus the package total, priced against the copper-linked price baseline.

Selection → quotation →

BOM and quantities

4 per language

4 CSV per language: the itemised bill of materials without prices, plus the quantity tables the engine produces itself — summary, cables and devices.

Open the bid package →

Compliance checklists

3 per language

3 files per language: the grid-code checklist as CSV and HTML — clause by clause with pass / fail / na / unknown and the measured value against its limit — plus the configurator design-rule checks. A clause without data is never reported as pass: it is listed as unknown with the reason.

Open the bid package →

Index and manifest

2 shared by both

2 files shared by both languages: a README and a machine-readable manifest listing every entry with its byte size and its data source, and naming anything that could not be produced instead of writing an empty file.

Open the bid package →

On the bid-package page, pick a scheme and press once: the package is assembled in your browser and downloaded as one ZIP, English and Chinese inside the same file.

Or work through the deliverables desk page by page — report, drawings, quotation, compliance — and create a read-only link you can send to a client.

Where these numbers come from

Measured on this build with a worked scheme on 2026-09-29: the one-shot export produced 66 entries in 2.7 s as a ZIP of about 230 KB (uncompressed content about 1 MB). The file count on each card is the package manifest’s own group count; anything that could not be produced is written into the package as an explicit “unavailable” note with its reason, never as an empty file.

What the engine actually solves

One engine, one model: every study below runs on the same topology and the same equipment ratings, so the numbers agree with each other.

  • Load flow — per-node voltage, branch loading, losses and the limits that are violated.
  • IEC 60909 short circuit — c-factors, κ peak factor, motor contribution and equipment withstand checks.
  • Protection coordination — TCC curves, grading margins and the selectivity table.
  • N-1 contingency — what happens when one source or one transformer drops out, and how the scheme restores.
  • Power quality — harmonics / THD, resonance scan, detuned and passive filter design, volt / VAR optimisation.
  • Safety — IEEE 1584 arc flash (incident energy, arc current) and touch / step voltage checks.
  • Dynamics — motor starting, transformer ageing, unbalanced load flow and time-series / climate profiles.
  • Renewables & DC — PV shading, wind, storage, DC networks and grid-tied / islanding transfer.
  • Economics — loss allocation, life-cycle cost, payback and a copper-linked price baseline.
  • Outputs — drawings, BOM, protection & cable schedules, I/O list and the chaptered design report.
