Saving and sharing data in EG Cloud
EG Cloud is a cloud data backup and sharing service, managed through the software infrastructure and datacenter of Acronis, that Electro Graphics makes available to users of its software under warranty and/or maintenance contract.
With EG Cloud, it is possible to:
• Upload projects to your cloud space, organized in folders and subfolders.
• Download and open projects previously uploaded to EG Cloud.
• Navigate your cloud space through the EG Cloud browser, which provides the essential commands to create new folders, upload and download files, create sharing links, etc.
• Access your cloud space through the Acronis web portal to access content and account settings pages.
• Access your cloud space from mobile devices through the Acronis Cyber Files app, which allows, among other features, to add annotations to PDF printouts for subsequent import into electrical schematic drawings in graphical environment.

Power flow analysis
The analysis of the power flows allows to determine the power and current values required in certain points of the wiring diagram in order to allow the correct sizing of disconnecting and protection elements. power supply groups, generators, transformers and converters.
The analysis is aimed at two functions.
- Calculate the electrical power (active and apparent) absorbed by the loads connected to a component in the wiring diagram. The value of the absorbed power is acquired from the technical data of the material item assigned to the symbol in the wiring diagram.
- Calculate the current values on the component output lines. This second analysis depends on the definition of the phases on the symbol pins.
All analysis data can be saved on XLS excel file.
