Engineering Disciplines — SUBSTATION

Substation Design

FrameAI Substation automates the documentation and arithmetic for substation design up to 400 kV. IEEE 80 grounding grid calculations (touch/step voltage, mesh voltage, Schwarz equations), busbar rating per IEC 60871-1, equipment specifications per IEC 60076/IEC 62271, and single-line diagram generation — so your engineers focus on the engineering, not the spreadsheet.

FrameAI offers all disciplines as individual plans or bundled in cost-effective packages. View pricing →
