SAGSEC is a powerful and easy to use Microsoft Windows program for the exact nonlinear 3-dimensional static analysis of a multi-span tension section (single ground wire or conductor between two dead-end attachment points). Structural supports for all clamps and insulators can either be fixed or flexible (with specified transverse and longitudinal stiffness). The swings of the insulators as well as their weights and wind areas are accounted for in 3-dimensions. Marker balls can be installed at arbitrary locations along the spans. SAGSEC is commonly used to determine the sags, tensions and support reactions of a tension section when the simplifying concept of "ruling span" is not appropriate. It can calculate the section static equilibrium configuration for arbitrary combinations of: 1) sagging conditions, 2) wind velocity and direction, 3) balanced or unbalanced ice, 4) temperature, 5) broken conductors or insulators, 6) slack redistribution through offsets or other means and 7) support relocations with a fixed length of cable between the dead ends.
SAGSEC is a user friendly program with easy to interpret text and graphics summaries of your analysis. The text reports include detailed analysis results and the graphics displays the equilibrium shape of a single tension section. Our goal with SAGSEC is to make the most streamlined program possible for the sag-tension analysis of a single tension section. This was done by omitting many of the features that would be included in a more complete line design program. Users wanting a more complete set of line design features including terrain modeling, clearances to terrain, rating, structure spotting, material management and plan & profile sheet generation are better served by the standard edition of our PLS-CADD program. PLS-CADD and SAPS also build upon the FE sag-tension capability offered in SAGSEC allowing more sophisticated modeling of structure flexibility and the interaction between wires of different circuits and phases than is possible with the single wire model in SAGSEC.
