PSS/ADEPT is an engineering software application designed to model, analyze, and plan electric power systems—especially distribution networks. It helps utilities, consultants, and researchers build accurate network models, run critical studies, and make data‑driven decisions for reliability, capacity, and safety.
Key capabilities:
- Power flow and voltage analysis to evaluate loading, losses, and voltage profiles
- Short‑circuit and fault calculations for equipment duty checks and safety studies
- Protection coordination with device modeling and setting evaluation
- Scenario and contingency analysis for switching plans, N-1 conditions, and network reconfiguration
- Distributed energy resources (DER) and EV hosting capacity assessments
- Reliability analysis, including common performance indices and outage impact evaluation
- Study automation and reporting to streamline workflows and documentation
- Data import/export with common utility data formats to support integration with existing systems
Typical use cases:
- Distribution planning and capacity upgrades
- Protection studies and standards validation
- DER interconnection screening and optimization
- Reliability improvement and capital planning
- Operations support for switching and contingency preparedness
Benefits:
- Improves study accuracy and consistency
- Speeds up planning cycles with repeatable workflows
- Enhances collaboration through clear visuals and reports
