No trail
No versions, no record of which standard, cable table or short-circuit hypothesis was used. When the calculation is challenged, there is no way to defend it.
Size cables, short-circuit and grounding, capacitor banks, surge arresters and battery banks by IEC, NBR and IEEE methods — the same calculation an expensive package delivers, now with a calculation report in Word ready to sign.
Your electrical sizing spreadsheet was built by someone who left the company 6 years ago. Do you still trust it?
No versions, no record of which standard, cable table or short-circuit hypothesis was used. When the calculation is challenged, there is no way to defend it.
One cell overwritten by mistake and the whole sizing silently starts to lie. No one notices until a breaker fails to trip or a cable overheats in the field.
The document you sign off for the project you still assemble by hand, copying number by number. Hours lost, transcription errors.
Loads, voltage, feeders and the short-circuit source. The same data you already gather in the spreadsheet — only validated on input.
Short-circuit by IEC 60909, cable ampacity and voltage drop by NBR 5410, grounding by IEEE 80. Transparent, never a black box.
A formatted calculation report, with cited formulas and standards — ready to attach to the project and sign with engineering responsibility.
All 13 calculation routines, already available in the workspace.
The same standardized calculation that engineering software costing thousands delivers — with nothing to install, no license, and a report ready to sign.

Informative comparison, based on the typical use of each alternative. “Engineering software” refers to proprietary sizing packages.
No black box. Every calculation follows an established method, citable in the report — the same ones that experts, inspectors and auditors recognize.
During the open beta, every account gets the Multidiscipline plan free — no card required. Prices below apply after the beta.
“I am an engineer. I got tired of redoing the same sizing in a spreadsheet that no one dares to touch. I built LOGOS to give the calculation what Excel never gave it: provenance.”
