Past accomplishments are great, but *PowerCalc's* innovations are ongoing. On ElectricianLIVE, James will announce the launch of *PowerCalc's* new Industrial/Manufacturing Package. This adds even more "firsts" to *PowerCalc's* long list of innovations: design of Automatic Transfer Switches with Generators (ATSs); Motor Control Centers (MCCs); Doubled Ended Switchgears; and Unit Substations. Expected release date is late March, and we are excited to tell you all about it. *PowerCalc's* industrial package can automatically do the electrical design for the most complex of manufacturing, processing, and operating facilities for any industry. James answers the following questions:           What is* PowerCalc*?           How does *PowerCalc* comply with the NEC?           Tell me about how you put together *PowerCalc's* data base?           Tell me about *PowerCalc's* 1 Line Diagram...how is it generated? *PowerCalc* is getting ready to launch its new Industrial / Manufacturing software,  tell us about your new software package...what does it do and when can we expect to have it available?  You will hear all the details on how *PowerCalc's*  database was written to provide fully populated NEC lookup tables, instantaneous updates for changes in your design and project, and its  automatic and simultaneously generated 1 Line Diagram.  **Florida Engineering Society** And mark your calendars for Thursday, August 6th. At the Florida Engineering Society's Annual Conference, *PowerCalc* presents:  Commit to Green: The Conductor is the Link to Save at least 7% of Electrical Energy Use. *PowerCalc* focuses on the conductor; the single largest link between the generation and end-use consumption of electricity. In the context of energy savings movements, it is time to look at the conductor: residential and commercial buildings consume 75% of the national electricity output and an estimated 30% of drawn energy is lost as heat.   [![New Call-to-action](https://blog.powercalc.co/hs-fs/hub/1002713/hub_generated/resized/0f70aba1-dbdc-4087-94bb-a3ddfe985097.png)](https://www.powercalc.co/cs/c/?cta_guid=43ecd730-7c00-4101-bc4a-4d7d7461a684&placement_guid=0ab391e1-360e-4211-839a-cceab9a5f499&portal_id=1002713&canon=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.powercalc.co%2Fhear-about-the-nec-at-electricianlive&redirect_url=APefjpHXkKXud-aRF9bPZFsG4eYIfRnoKoMoS5FIgTViLLbfz0PTWHMEbWv4pu1MBeKgLr-DySiY0NamBR2qS_b4xVNBzAbFFMh1KRG9D7fpslu5OZ28IPzYUsHNqNk1ZKkk81J3DXWvuAVhAyXY3GM06_aic-8Uvd07eThsJRCR4WBVeztrDFZdHP6WMBNhVyfyTtwl97LoK3CRs7_Q2EPqM9tWvrBTjgeN9fK5njVret4VX5zJK-FwyuMqrzGevRK5z3VSZLQ7DljFV2w9WdxBVKQ2WSiZNfF75lWE_q67ynls5B0H2OPOATdq_5hwwU8KHOHEXmI3&click=bb4f8e88-f0e7-45dd-bb49-388bd07eb004&hsutk=1eccf89649977aa92d19264b0ba5583c&signature=AAH58kFIfWP0nQI1jfggcbzTeVwuNE0_Ew&pageId=26323825402&__hstc=88032391.1eccf89649977aa92d19264b0ba5583c.1582654149682.1582654149682.1582654149682.1&__hssc=88032391.2.1582654149683&__hsfp=1856758919&contentType=standard-page) We look forward to meeting you!
