An interactive color graphical simulation and analysis package for a power plant's electrical auxiliary system is developed and presented in this paper. The software is written in C and is designed for PC use. The objective of this package is twofold: to assist the engineers to do non real-time and what if type of analyses in a portable and highly user friendly environment and to minimize the growth of the company's mainframe computer, and to decrease computer turn-around time for the auxiliary system studies. A description of the package, a detailed demonstration of user interface capabilities, and hardware requirements are provided in the paper.
