Network Manager™ provides an advanced data engineering environment. The data engineering toolkit incorporates a standardized way of representing a wide variety of physical and abstract objects related to the operation of an electric utility. The environment uses the CIM - Common Information Model (IEC 61970) as an import/export interface. The Data Engineering also includes a graphical editing environment, which allows the user to interact with the network model via substation one-line diagrams.

Data Engineering Features:

• Graphical editing of network connectivity
• Forms and tabular entry of parameters
• CIM XML Parser / Exporter
• Format converters
• Connectivity validator
