The Electromagnetic Transients Program (EMTP) is a computer program for the simulation of electric power system transient phenomena. The program provides a large set of device models permitting accurate modeling of power system components over a wide frequency range. Traditionally, this program has existed only in mainframe and minicomputer environments, limiting its use to engineers and companies with access to these facilities. Recently, the EMTP has been made available for use on IBM and compatible personal computers (PCs) using the IBM OS/2 and Microsoft Windows operating systems. This article describes the application of the EMTP.
