There is the partner software named MeteorSpec LT. Any junction of low-voltage network simulated by the MeteorSpec-NETWORK can be used as a power supply point of a street lighting cabinet designed by the MeteorCalc SL.
MeteorCalc SL will help you to create high-quality street lighting projects, including accurate schemes, precise specifications, and detailed descriptions of equipment. The complex of electrical calculations carried out by MeteorCalc SL allows designing safe electrical installations.
For first start we recommend you refer to the Getting Started (Beginners Guide) brochure and use the MeteorCalc_SL_Example_1_Street_Lighting.dwg file. This step by step example is adapted for the trial version.
I'm curious, what is the best way to indicate street lighting/traffic signals in Civil 3D? Currently I'm using COGO points to represent the various types of work required (replace luminaire, install new pole, remove street light and foundation, &c.), however, using a symbol (and various user defined labels), does not fully help with visualizing street lighting/traffic signal pole foundation interferences with utilities, bridge structures, or even just for simple flythrough or export to lighting analysis software such as DIALux. Should I take the time to learn AutoCAD Utility Design (I'm a civil engineer, not an electrical engineer, just to be clear)? Can I utilized pipe network structures/pressure network structures for such planimetric roadway features? What solution have you come up with in Civil 3D for integrated street lighting/traffic signal plans and models?
That kinda sounds like what I thought. With multi-blocks one can model the below grade foundations as well as above grade poles and luminaires with attached ies files. The only problem I can see with that is the callouts. With COGO points, I can can create dynamic point labels to indicate pole style, arm length, luminaire type, &c. and have all of this info in a dynamic Civil 3D point table.
AutoLux doesn't appear to be free. DIALux is free, and can generate comprehensive design and analysis documentation. Yes, it's a double step process (export to fbx, import fbx into 3ds Max export to 3ds), but it is free.
The analysis doesn't concern me as much (any software will do) as the design information, the BIM within Civil 3D. Whereas I can add User Defined Properties to COGO points, how do I do that with blocks? How do I pull that embedded information from the object and display it in dynamic labels? It is this question that led me wonder if maybe modeling such roadway features as pipe network structures or pressure structures may be a solutions, as such structures can be represented as a 3D model, a 2D symbol, all with embedded data that can be labeled and agregated into a table. This is also why I was wondering about Utility design, if it has a better way to model and access such information.
MeteorCalc saves the results of the last three calculations. Using the "Object Data" command and selecting a block of results, the user can view the history of calculations at the corresponding node or line.
New opportunities in the "Power Cable Data" dialog-window If you open a drawing that contains a network model created in another regional standard, it is possible that the selected cable section has data assigned, but the description for such cable type is missing in the cable database installed for your location.
The dialog-window responds to such a conflict by showing object data in the read-only mode and indicates the "Unknown Cable Type" message. Since the version 3.1 you can easily replace an unknown type with a similar cable type from the installed database.
New command "Recalculate Feeder". Now you can with one click recalculate all previously defined calculation points in a feeder. The new command supports all calculation points defined by the "End Point Calculation" command and by the "Feeder Power Sum" command.
Connection with 0.4kV distribution networks. Since the version 3.0 a distribution panel board may have two variants of a power supply source: a transformer or a startpoint. Any junction of low-voltage distribution network simulated by the MeteorSpec-NETWORK software can be used as a power supply point of a street lighting cabinet designed by the MeteorCalc SL.
Calculations in the street lighting network will be performed taking into account all cable sections from the transformer of distribution network up to the estimated fault point in the street lighting feeder. The MeteorCalc SL 3.0 and the partner software MeteorSpec-NETWORK can work as combined complex.
New power supply source. The "Startpoint" is a special object for connection to low-voltage distribution feeders modeled by the MeteorSpec-NETWORK software. The new block is included in the template of the version 3.0.
New ability in the Data Library Now you can find and view data of all the luminaires used in your Data Library. For any new or editing street lighting unit data of previously described luminaires can be quickly inserted.
A scheme block can have new attributes for data of protection devices and internal wiring in street lighting poles. For details refer to the Help chapter > How to use MeteorCalc > Output > Scheme Blocks.
New messages for specifications and feeder calculation commands. There are cases when some elements of a street lighting model are left without assigned data. If a street lighting feeder contains blocks of SL-units or cable lines without data, the MeteorCalc offers to mark these blocks by fixed auxiliary markers around blocks and/or change color of polylines. Now the user can easily find such objects in the drawing and assign data for them.
Individual scheme blocks. Now the user can define an individual scheme-block for each street-lighting unit code separately. A full name of a scheme-block is created by concatenation of two strings: the "MTR_SCHM_" prefix and a code of a street lighting unit, as it is used in the Data Library.
Changes in the "Draw Scheme" window. The "Insertion of scheme blocks" drop-down list has been added. This property defines what scheme-blocks are used to draw the scheme. It can be set to "Find and insert individual scheme blocks" mode or to "Insert default scheme blocks" mode).
The "Links" button has been added. During scheme drawing the MeteorCalc creates temporary links between blocks of the model and corresponding blocks of the scheme. If you press the "Links" button, you can view or delete these temporary links.
New command - "Manual Numbering". Now the manual numbering of street lighting units blocks is available. You find the new "Manual Numbering" command on the "Feeder Objects" panel of the ribbon.
The "Cable Markers Manager" command was added. Now you can refresh data of all cable markers on the current tab and indicate updated markers. This very useful command checks data and length of each cable span, finds corresponding cable marker and updates it. Also this command allows to detect and delete invalid cable markers in the drawing.
Direct addition of street lighting unit data to the Data Library. There are situations when you open a file with street lighting model designed by others users, but some descriptions of street lighting units are missing in your Data Library. Now the MeteorCalc SL allows you to add the missing type of a street lighting unit to the Data Library directly from Unit Data window.
If the MeteorCalc SL detects an unknown type of street lighting unit, it generates the "Add to Data Library" button bottom of the Unit Data window. Just press this button to add all the data of this street lighting unit to corresponding category of your Data Library.
New category of specifications. The version 2.0, in addition to all the general specifications of the equipment, will help you to calculate in one click the total length of the cable tracks, separately for underground cable laying and for overhead lines.
New data and specifications of an internal wiring. The version 2.0 will help you to obtain separate specifications for the internal wiring and protective equipment of street lighting poles. Now you can assign two types of an internal wiring to each street lighting unit in the Data Library.
The "Cable Construction" window was changed. The controls for choosing of a phase conductors material are moved to the "Cable Construction" window. We've also updated the content of the "Cable Data" window.
New "Import SL Cables" command was added. This command allows to import cable lines from Xref or from selected layer of the current drawing. The command works in the semi-automatical mode, drawing a polyline from a block to a block.
The procedure of short-circuit current calculations was changed according to IEC 60909 (2016). Please, note that several conditions of the main procedure of short-circuit current calculations, described in the IEC 60909, have been changed in 2016. Since version 1.5 MeteorCalc SL performs electrotechnical calculations based on the last version of the standard.
The Data Archive was added. The Data Archive is an auxiliary storage of street lighting units data. It's additional place for storage of auxiliary data or seldom used data. The Data Archive is located also on a user's computer. Street lighting unit data can be moved from the Data Library to the Archive and can be restored from the Data Archive to the Data Library. 152ee80cbc
