Abstract
Simulation and especially computer simulation, is a basic tool since it enables engineers to understand how systems work without actually needing to see them. They can learn how they work in different circumstances and optimize their design with considerably less cost in terms of time and money than if they had to carry out tests on a physical system.
There is a wide range of commercial brands on the market offering products for electrical simulation. These are powerful tools, but require the engineer to have a perfect knowledge of the electrical field.
This work will firstly develop the simulation models of different elements that characterise an electrical substation in isolation; they will then be put together to model the full system, all of this using the Bond Graph technique. Finally, the system thus developed will be compared with the one developed in a specific electrical simulation program.
