1. A method comprising:
- receiving load selections from a user via a generator sizing interface of a display;
generating a single line diagram based on the load selections;
displaying the single line diagram based on the load selections on the generator sizing interface;
accessing a database for power requirements for the load selections of the single line diagram;
calculating a maximum frequency dip from the single load diagram via the generator sizing interface and the load selections via the generator sizing interface and the display; and
identifying an optimal generator based, at least in part, on the power requirement of the load selections and based, at least in part, on the maximum frequency dip.

Abstract
Customized hardware provides a generator sizing interface to the user for selecting individual loads that may be present at a particular facility of building. The hardware and/or generator sizing interface receives one or more load selections from the user and, in response, generates a single line diagram or a one line diagram for power flow analysis based on the load selections. The hardware and/or generator sizing interface accesses a database for power requirements for the load selections of the diagram. A List of potential generators or an optimal generator is identified based at least in part on the power requirement of the load selections.

17. A mobile device comprising:
-
a display configured to illustrate a single line diagram based on load selections on a generator sizing interface; an input device configured to receive load selections from a user via the generator sizing interface; a memory including a database for power requirements for the load selections; a processor configured to generate a single line diagram based on the load selections and access the database for power requirements for the load selections of the single line diagram, wherein the processor is configured to calculate a maximum voltage dip from the single load diagram and the load selections via the generator sizing interface of the display, wherein an optimal generator size is identified based, at least in part, on the power requirement of the load selections and based, at least in part, on the maximum voltage dip, wherein the processor is configured to generate a report including the power requirement and send the report to a manufacturer device. - View Dependent Claims (18)

19. A method comprising:
-
receiving load selections from a user via a generator sizing interface of a display; generating a single line diagram based on the load selections; accessing a database for power requirements for the load selections of the single line diagram; receiving an electrical parameter limit from the user via the generator sizing interface; calculating a maximum frequency dip from the single load diagram and the load selections via the generator sizing interface of the display; identifying an optimal generator based on the power requirement of the load selections and the electrical parameter limit and the maximum frequency dip; and displaying the single line diagram based on the load selections on the generator sizing interface.
