Power plant cabling software

CMPIC in Plant DesignIncluded in CMPIC’s standard functionality there are a number of facilities which are available to all users but will be of particular interest to companies involved in plant design.CONDUIT MANAGEMENTIn CMPIC you can schedule conduits to contain a cable or cables: * For their entire length * For part of their length * Where they are on cable trays * Where they are off cable trays * To enclose cables from where they leave the trays to the from and to devices Once scheduled, a cable or cables are linked to the conduits. A cable which requires conduit which has not yet been allocated, will not be able to be approved until this requirement has been met.Conduits can contain a single or multiple cables and % volume fill of each conduit is maintained by CMPIC. Listed alongside each of the cables available for linking to a conduit is the % fill which would result if this cable were added to the conduit.MULTI LEVEL TRAYS OR LADDER RACKSCMPIC caters for the creation of multiple levels of tray to accommodate the various cable segregations used. These levels do not need to be individually modelled in CAD but can be created in CMPIC based on attributes held in the model or passed to CMPIC. Connectivity between levels where required can be created in CMPIC itself.SUPPORT FOR ALL TYPES OF CABLE CARRIERSIn a large plant design there may be requirements for routing cables through trays, trenches, ducts, underground duct banks, watertight or gas tight penetrations, conduits, pull boxes etc. CMPIC caters for all these requirements.CREATION OF RACEWAYSWhere there may be many types of nodal network segment through which cables are routed, e.g. tray to duct to conduit, these segments can be grouped together to form a raceway. Raceways can then be printed on reports where required.
