PSSSINCAL efficient planning of utility & industry networks
Comprehensive network planning and analysis are essential for utility companies as well as industrial network operators, generating companies, and engineering consulting firms. Performing this can be a time-consuming business. To facilitate the planning and design of supply networks as much as possible, Siemens has designed PSSSINCAL, a high-performance tool for the planning of electricity, gas, water, and district heating networks. In over 50 years of experience, Siemens has optimized PSSSINCAL in close cooperation with the users and is the world-wide leading provider of system planning software. PSSSINCAL is a highly versatile tool with standardized interfaces for easy data import and export, and offers the possibility to maintain various data in one single system. It is the perfectly suited and highly efficient tool for anyone who has to perform planning and analysis of utility and industrial networks.
PSSSINCAL architecture fast and easy integration into any IT environment
PSSSINCAL is equipped with numerous interfaces to allow simple integration into your IT environment. The use of open or commercial databases permits direct data exchange with other systems like: GIS SCADA ERP (e.g., SAP) Asset management Engine application
Asset management and more Metering SCADA PSS ODMS IEC 61968 / 61970 CIM XML
Protection
even by standard protocols such as CIM (IEC 61968/61970) including version 10 to 14 (UCTE). The open architecture, based on COM servers, also allows the generation of custom applications using PSSSINCAL as an engine.
