OCC developed a custom resource planning application for National Grid Gas to support their matrix-management. The Workplan system runs on the corporate intranet and was built to support existing staff working practices, realising the benefit of enhanced coordination with negligible training or disruption.
The OCC LiveLoad application calculates the physical deformation on an overhead power line caused by suspending a maintenance trolley on the cable. Working on live cables from a trolley placed by helicopter will allow the National Grid Maintenance Delivery team to achieve significant efficiency savings.
OCC worked with AbD serotec to produce new software that allows AbD Serotec's technical staff to track the various components of their products and provides an automatic certificate holding all the relevant data.
OCC has supplied software models to National Grid for over 10 years. The OHL Rating project delivered enhanced line rating capability, improved integration with Asset Management’s other functions and better application support. OCC also created facilities for data export to the National Grid Critical Unit Program.
National Grid chose OCC to develop and support "TRALC2", a desktop application which calculates the performance of National Grid's high voltage transformers as they are subjected to heavy electrical loads.
TRALC2 can be used to predict the performance of super grid transformers in the next hours or minutes and can be used months in advance to simulate the effects of planned maintenance. OCC delivered the first version of TRALC2 in 2000 and it is still being used, extended and supported.
TRALC2 is a Windows application accessing a shared database of transformer and load data and running on the corporate desktop environment. Lately the TRALC2 model was integrated into the national control room's Circuit Thermal Monitor
