: CYMCAP is a powerful, specialized tool for cable thermal assessment. However, it is an installed desktop application. Cableizer offers several advantages over CYMCAP, including a more modern, web-based interface, a highly detailed cable construction editor, and, according to the developers, superior performance in several calculation aspects. Cableizer has also developed methods for ventilated tunnels that its competitor does not offer. cableizer software
: Cableizer implements the traditional IEC 60287 standards for steady-state conditions. It calculates cables in the air under standard solar radiation, and buried assets with multi-system configurations. | Value | Meaning | Acceptable range |
The software is built for high-stakes infrastructure projects where standard manual calculations aren't enough. Cableizer has also developed methods for ventilated tunnels
Cableizer handles a wide range of real-world installations:
Unlike traditional desktop-bound grid analysis software, Cableizer operates entirely in the cloud, allowing power systems engineers, utilities, and renewable project developers to model complex installations without local installations or hardware dongles. It uniquely streamlines complex calculations—ranging from ampacity ratings under international standards to advanced finite element method (FEM) thermal modeling—into a highly accessible, collaborative interface.
