PLS CADD

PLS CADD or Power Line Systems Computer Aided Design and Drafting is a powerful design software used in overhead power lines analysis and design. It has the capability of doing various engineering considerations involved in the power line systems. Starting from surveying to layouts, to structural, and lastly to the drafting. All of these capabilities are bundled into one single software and thus increases efficiency in terms of information retention and sharing. Not to mention its powerful tool in providing the users a complete and  detailed profile and plan drawings.

PLS CADD consists of the following specific functions:

                      1. Line Routing and Design

                      2. Structural design of Poles, Towers, and frames of
                          different materials

                      3. Sag and Tension calculation

                      4. Optimum Structure spotting

                      5. Complete and detailed profile and plan drawings

For all transmission line engineers and enthusiasts, this is a must have since any proficiency and background related has become an employment requirement in most, if not all, power industry around the world.
