PSP-UFU - PSP-UFU 2026w23b-beta

PSP-UFU (Power Systems Platform of Federal University of Uberlândia) is a cross-platform, multilingual, Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) designed for power system analysis, simulation, and education.

The software provides an advanced graphical user interface (GUI) and Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools that allow users to build electrical transmission networks and control systems using intuitive visual components.

PSP-UFU supports a wide range of studies involving power system steady-state, dynamic, and control analysis while offering a modern and extensible environment for research, teaching, and engineering applications.

Windows

Below are the Windows installer (PSP-UFU_x86_32_VC.exe) and ZIP package downloads (PSP-UFU_x86_32_VC.zip). Use the ZIP package only if the installer fails to run.

It is necessary to install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable:

https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x86.exe

Some recurring issues on Windows:

• After downloading PSP-UFU, your browser may incorrectly identify the file as potentially dangerous. If this happens, simply choose Keep or Keep file.
• When launching the installer, Windows SmartScreen may display a warning. Click More info and then Run anyway.

Linux

PSP-UFU is available for Linux 64-bit systems through two distribution formats:

• Debian Package (PSP-UFU-x86_64.deb)
• AppImage (PSP-UFU-x86_64.AppImage)

Debian Package (.deb)

The Debian package supports most Debian-based Linux distributions, including:

• Ubuntu
• Linux Mint
• Debian
• Pop!_OS
• KDE Neon
• Elementary OS
• Zorin OS

To install the package, open a terminal in the download directory and run:

sudo apt install ./PSP-UFU-x86_64.deb

After installation, PSP-UFU can be launched directly from the application menu or from a terminal:

PSP-UFU

AppImage

The AppImage version is a portable package that does not require installation and is compatible with most modern Linux distributions.

To run it:

chmod +x PSP-UFU-x86_64.AppImage
./PSP-UFU-x86_64.AppImage

Supported distributions include:

• Ubuntu
• Debian
• Linux Mint
• Fedora
• openSUSE
• Arch Linux
• Pop!_OS

AppImage requires FUSE support. Most Linux distributions already provide it by default.

PSP-UFU - PSP-UFU 2026w10a-beta

PSP-UFU (Power Systems Platform of Federal University of Uberlândia) is a cross-platform, multilingual, Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) with advanced GUI (Graphical User Interface) features and CAD (Computer-Aided Design) tools for power system studies.

The software allows for the construction of any electric transmission network and control systems through the deployment of visual elements.

For further informations access the website.

Windows

Below are the Windows installer (PSP-UFU_x86_32_VC.exe) and .zip downloads (use the .zip file only if the installer fails to run).
It is necessary to install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable.
Some recurring problems in Windows:

• After the PSP-UFU download, the browser can falsely indicate that it is a dangerous file, just click on "Keep file";
• On Installer openning, Windows again indicates that the file is dangerous, just click on "Run anyway";

Linux

Also are present the package for installation on Debian based Linux systems (eg. Ubuntu, Mint) 64-bit (PSP-UFU_amd64_Alpha2018w15a.deb).

You may need to add the wxWidgets library directory to environment variables.
For this follow one of the methods presented below:

Method I

• Open the terminal and access the directory that is present PSP-UFU:

cd /usr/local/bin

• Enter the wxWidgets shared libraries directory in the environment variable:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib

• And then run PSP-UFU on the same terminal section:

./PSP-UFU

This action must be taken every time you want to run PSP-UFU.

Method II

Or, more permanently, insert the command into the file ~/.bashrc:

echo "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib" >> ~/.bashrc

Make sure your computer has the video drives installed correctly, otherwise the program will not display the workspace for creating and editing single-line diagrams or control block diagrams.
