EasyPower Integrator

Introduction

The integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and electrical power system software has revolutionized the way professionals in the construction and engineering industries work. EasyPower Integrator, an Autodesk Revit add-in, has emerged as a powerful tool that seamlessly connects Revit models with EasyPower software, streamlining the process of creating one-line diagrams and conducting electrical analysis.

Effortless Data Exchange

EasyPower Integrator acts as a bridge between Revit and EasyPower, facilitating the exchange of model data, analysis data, and design data between the two programs. By reading the Revit model, the add-in captures power equipment details, including families, types, parameters, and connectivity. This enables EasyPower to automatically generate a complete one-line drawing, eliminating the need for manual data entry and saving valuable time for electrical analysis.

Seamless Collaboration

One of the standout features of EasyPower Integrator is its ability to enable collaboration between Revit and EasyPower users. Revit users can export data to EasyPower users, providing them with access to BIM data within EasyPower. This seamless collaboration enhances communication and coordination between different stakeholders involved in the design and analysis process.

Enhanced Design Capabilities

EasyPower Integrator goes beyond data exchange and empowers users with enhanced design capabilities. The add-in imports the results of electrical calculations, such as short circuit, arc flash, electrical design, and voltage drop, as parameters associated with individual equipment in the Revit model. This integration allows designers to make informed decisions based on accurate and up-to-date data, ensuring compliance with codes and standards.

User-Friendly Interface

EasyPower Integrator offers a flexible and user-friendly interface that simplifies the mapping of data between Revit and EasyPower. Users have the ability to map Revit equipment families, properties, and circuit parameters to their desired EasyPower equipment type and properties. The add-in also provides built-in default mapping options and the ability to save and reuse mapping configurations, further enhancing efficiency and reducing errors.

Efficient Workflow and Time Savings

By eliminating the duplication of effort and the risk of errors associated with creating one-line diagrams and entering equipment parameters manually, EasyPower Integrator significantly enhances workflow efficiency. Design revisions in the Revit model can be seamlessly updated in the EasyPower project within seconds, avoiding the frustration of redoing work and ensuring that the analysis remains accurate and up-to-date.

Furthermore, EasyPower's powerful automated SmartDesign™ tool saves time by automating the sizing of cables, circuit breakers, panels, switchboards, transformers, and other equipment. This feature not only expedites the design process but also ensures compliance with industry standards and best practices.

Conclusion

EasyPower Integrator is a game-changer for professionals in the electrical power system analysis and design field. Its seamless integration with Revit and EasyPower enables effortless data exchange, enhances collaboration, and improves design capabilities. With its user-friendly interface and time-saving features, this plug-in is an invaluable tool for streamlining workflows and ensuring accurate and compliant electrical analysis and design. If you're looking to optimize your power system analysis and design process, EasyPower Integrator is a must-try.
