in analyzing power system

Introduction

Mipower is state of the art window base Power System Software. MiPower is highly
interactive, user friendly software for all analysis, planning, design and simulation on any
given Power System irrespective of the geographical and environmental constraints.

MiPower is armed with robust power system engine in the backend and a lucid top-
notched Windows GUI in the front end. Approach, technique and methodology employed
are field proven and time tested. This conforms to standard ANSI, IEEE, IEC and other
worldwide accepted standards. Core power system engine includes
