''Quick Power Path tour'' video tutorials will help you through these several short lessons to learn how to use software solution. It is basic online training for learning. If you need data examples for practicing go on Surface data examples and find examples.
Start watching the videos and smoothly repeat commands using them by yourself.
Lesson 1 - Workspace
In Lesson 1 you will learn what the Power Path workspace looks like and how you can customize it. We will show you where you can find the main commands and panels, how to switch from 2D to 3D or BIM workspace, how to open or save the drawing and which formats Power Path supports.
Lesson 2 - Design a new power line
In Lesson 2 you will learn how to design a new power line – how to create a surface, draw and edit your power line in 2D which automatically draws in 3D and applies to the created surface, add or remove additional supports, and add insulators, conductors and ground wires to the created power line.
Lesson 3 - Redesign existing power line
In Lesson 3 you will learn how to import your power line and how to edit it further by adding/removing supports, insulators and conductors.
Lesson 4 - Creating a profile view
In Lesson 4 you will learn how to define elements of the profile view, how to insert the profile view in the drawing and how to refresh the profile view after changes are made.
Lesson 5 - Calculations and reporting
In Lesson 5 you will learn how to set up weather and referent conditions and how to apply those conditions to a power line. Then you will learn how to generate reports in Power Path – Sag-tension report, Support report, Quantity report and Power line coordinates report.
Lesson 6 - IFC record of power line
In Lesson 6 you will learn how to export your designed power line to the IFC record and how to import your BIM model of the power line to the IFC viewer.
Lesson 7 - Adding data models
