One of my graduate research assistants has recently learned ASPEN from scratch. One or more relays can be added on either side of the circuit breaker – they monitor current flow through the circuit breaker and the voltage at that side of the circuit breaker.

Relays are associated with circuit breakers.

Its simple graphical user interface allows you to quickly draw the system one-line on the screen, and supply system parameters by simply clicking on the bus, generator, line, transformer, fuses, or circuit breaker of interest. Assignment #6 – Intro to ASPEN Software & using it to solve Assignment #4 ASPEN Software - Introduction ASPEN is a very user-friendly software package that is capable of doing load-flow and short-circuit studies, as well as relay application and coordination.
