amikit, your ally in designing transformation centers

Discover amikit, our program for designing transformer substations, with over 20 years of experience helping professionals and students with their projects

Generating the documentation required by the Industry Ministry to design a transformer substation and legalizing its documentation has never been easier than now thanks toamikit 5.0The updated version of Ormazabal’s renowned software, which has been helping thousands of students and professionals in the sector complete their medium-voltage projects for over 20 years. Don’t you know this software for designing, calculating, and evaluating transformer substations? Then this is definitely for you.

amikit 5.0 is an easy-to-install tool that allows you to define projects of different types, with up to four transformers, including transformer substations, visualize the electrical schematic to locate and configure all the elements involved, perform a project cost estimate, and generate the documentation required by Spanish legislation. amikit now allows you to import and export projects to share them with other designers. Over the years, amikit has become the leading software intraining centersThey specialize in electrical installations and offer all the necessary tools for installation and updates. Now, their services can be updated online, without the need to download data packages, thus preserving existing projects.

amikit gathers our expert knowledge of the specific regulations of electricity distribution companies in Spain.

What makes amikit different from other tools for designing transformer substations?

amikit 5.0 is different because….

  • Automatically generates plans in formatDXF standard.
  • Exports files compatible withSoon to incorporate into other work units.
  • Calculate the grounding according toMIE-RAT.
  • It incorporates default values ​​in all fields based on themarket knowledgefrom Ormazabal.
  • Free, license-free.

How can I design a transformer substation with Amikit 5.0?

Amikit 5.0 is a software program that operates sequentially, feeding it with different data and requirements to carry out our project. To do this, the program will request project data such as its purpose and information about the medium-voltage electrical network to which the transformer substation will be connected, the type of transformer substation and its configuration, according to the needs, etc.

Once this configuration is complete, amikit 5.0 will automatically provide us with a series of documents. These will include:

  • A diagram of the center itself, exportable in CAD format, along with thes plantsand raisedsof the prefabricated envelope.
  • An indicative budget for the project that can be exported in different formats, such as Excel.
  • Documentation required by Spanish regulations: report, supporting calculations, specifications, budget, lists of plans or the health and safety study.
