amikit, your ally in designing transformation centers

Discover amikit, our program to design transformation centers with more than 20 years helping professionals and students with their projects

Generating the documentation required by the Industry to design a transformation center and legalizing its documentation has never been easier than it is now thanks to amikit 5.0, the updated version of the renowned Ormazabal software that has been helping thousands of students and professionals in the sector to carry out their medium voltage projects for more than 20 years. Do you really not know this software for the design, calculation and evaluation of transformation centers? Then this is really interesting for you.

amikit 5.0 is an easy-to-install tool that allows you to define different types of projects, with up to four transformers, including transformation centers, view the electrical diagram to locate and configure all the elements that are part of it, economically assess the project 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 reference software in training centers dedicated to electrical installations and offers all the facilities for its installation and updating. And now you can update your services online, without having to download data packages and keep your existing projects.

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

What makes amikit different from other tools for designing transformation centers?

amikit 5.0 is different because….

  • Automatically generates plans in standard DXF format.
  • Exports files compatible with Presto to incorporate into other work units.
  • Calculates the grounding according to WED-RAT.
  • Incorporates default values ​​in all fields based on Ormazabal’s market knowledge.

How can I design a transformation center with amikit 5.0?

amikit 5.0 is a software that works in sequences that we will feed with different data and requirements to carry out our project. To do this, the program will ask us for project data such as the purpose of the project and data about the medium voltage electrical network to which the transformation center would be connected, the type of CT and its configuration, according to the needs, etc.

Once this configuration is done, amikit 5.0 will offer us a series of documents automatically. Thus, we would have:

  • A diagram of the center itself, exportable in CAD format, together with the floor plans and elevations of 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 safety and security study Cheers.
