Flag Settings¶
THRUX provides code-validated designs and presents designers with notifications or Flags if a scenario is violating a Project’s applicable safety code or standard. Certain Flags can be ignored or have the visibility setting omitted. Deselect to omit a Flag.
Yellow Flags are warnings of violations of applicable safety codes.
Orange Flags are violations of applicable safety codes.
Red Flags are program errors, such as a piece of Equipment without a name.
Normal Priority Voltage Drop Threshold¶
A Flag is raised when the VD% Net for a piece of distribution equipment exceeds a specified percentage. The default value is 2%. The default threshold for end-of-line Equipment is 5%.
Non-Normal Priorty Voltage Drop Threshold¶
A Flag is raised when the VD% Net for a piece of non-normal distribution equipment, such as a generator or other secondary source of power, exceeds a specified percentage. The default value is 2%. The default threshold for end-of-line equipment is 5%.
Name¶
A Flag is raised when a piece of Equipment does not have a name.
Breaker Undersized¶
A Flag is raised when a breaker’s trip setting is smaller than its frame size.
Frame Undersized¶
A Flag is raised when an OCPD’s frame size will not accommodate the associated Load Capacity.
kAIC Undersized¶
A Flag is raised when the kAIC rating of an Equipment will not accommodate the SCC Net value.
Sets Per¶
A Flag is raised when the current amount of sets of conductors per circuit will not accommodate the Load Capacity.
Phase Undersized¶
A Flag is raised when the phase size of a conductor will not accommodate the Load Capacity.
Ground Undersized¶
A Flag is raised when a the size of the ground conductor will not accommodate the Load Capacity.
Conduit Undersized¶
A Flag is raised when the amount of the cross-sectional area that is occupied by a cable or cables exceeds the maximum fill ratio.
Voltage Drop Error¶
A Flag is raised when the VD% Net maximum threshold is exceeded.
Neutral Provision¶
A Flag is raised when the neutral conductor is undersized.
Equipment Overloaded¶
A Flag is raised when a piece of distribution Equipment is overloaded.
Equipment Voltage Drop Error¶
A Flag is raised when the VD% Net exceeds the threshold value.
