Etap Plot Manager 〈2026 Edition〉
: An all-in-one framework for creating live charts and graphs. It supports overlaying current results with previous study data and embedding these live charts directly onto the one-line diagram.
Directly export charts to formats including PDF, JPEG, PNG, and Metafile (EMF), or transfer the underlying data points straight to Microsoft Excel. Step-by-Step Workflow for Creating and Customizing Plots

ETAP categorizes your project drawings into a tree structure. Expand the tree to see your master One-Line Diagrams, nested sub-systems, and specific analytical presentations. Check the boxes next to the exact diagrams you want to include in your current plotting run. Step 3: Configuring the Page Setup and Scale
✅ – Manage all plots from one dashboard ✅ Batch printing & export – PDF, PNG, or direct to printer ✅ Customizable layouts – Add titles, logos, scales, and annotations ✅ Re-run plots without re-running simulations ✅ Template saving – Reuse plot settings across projects : An all-in-one framework for creating live charts
The Plot Manager dialog box will open, displaying your available diagrams, views, and presentations on the left pane. Step 2: Selecting Views and Presentations

Before Plot Manager, comparing results from multiple studies often required time-consuming manual work. A review from a long-time ETAP user highlighted the difficulty in comparing Harmonic Analysis results, a challenge ETAP directly addressed by stating that the "Plot Manager introduced with Version 18 should make results easier to compare". With Plot Manager, this challenge is overcome by providing an intelligent framework for plotting and analyzing study outcomes side-by-side.
| Study Type | Typical Plots Generated | | :--- | :--- | | | Bus voltage profile, branch loading (bar/pie charts). | | Short Circuit | 3P & SLG fault currents vs. bus number. | | Transient Stability | Rotor angle swing, generator speed, frequency deviation. | | Protection Coordination | TCC (Time-Current Characteristic) curves for relays/breakers. |
