Over the last year, SES has gone through considerable restructuring of its
approach to software development, making it faster and more flexible. This has
allowed us to deliver, more quickly, the features that our users want. This
restructuring has also provided for the greater reliability in our software
products demanded by our users. .....more

Plots of touch and step voltages for large irregular shapes can be created easily and quickly.
When studying large or sparse grids, users can create a perimeter profile a specified distance
around the precise area of interest. From this, produce visually enhanced representations of
the touch and step voltages.

The new TLC software package is a simplified analysis tool that quickly estimates line
parameters, electric fields, and magnetic fields associated with arbitrary configurations of
parallel transmission and distribution electric lines. It also estimates induced voltages and
currents on other parallel metallic utilities, such as pipelines and railways. It has been
designed with simplicity in mind, providing much useful information with minimal data
entry; it is analogous to SESGSE, the Grounding System Estimator developed for the
estimation of grounding requirements. TLC features new transmission & distribution line
structure databases coupled with databases containing an extensive library of conductors,
including rails and pipelines. These databases, together with the intuitive user interface,
provide an efficient tool that can be applied directly to simple system configurations; this
can be helpful for preliminary analyses of more complex systems. For more complex
systems or more detailed studies, SES recommends the Right-Of-Way or HIFREQ
software.
