EFC 400 Vs Edison Low Frequency
EFC 400 is a well-known software in the industry for many years.
Binrad simulation software has been in use for about 10 years.
Both softwares calculate magnetic field for transformers, cabinet, cables and Electric poles.
They display the results in two and three dimension graphic screen.
A comparison was made between Narda EFC-400 ST and Binrad Edison Low Frequency.
It includes several projects, the results are shown below.
The results are practically identical.
The projects (of both Narda and Binrad) can be downloaded at the link above.
