RegulatingControl

Specifies a set of equipment that works together to control a power system quantity such as voltage or flow.
Remote bus voltage control is possible by specifying the controlled terminal located at some place remote from the controlling equipment.
In case multiple equipment, possibly of different types, control same terminal there must be only one RegulatingControl at that terminal. The most specific subtype of RegulatingControl shall be used in case such equipment participate in the control, e.g. TapChangerControl for tap changers.
For flow control load sign convention is used, i.e. positive sign means flow out from a TopologicalNode (bus) into the conducting equipment.

-Note that RegulatingControl.targetDeadband is primarily used if the RegulatingControl.discrete is set to "true". Tools should handle cases in which RegulatingControl.targetDeadband has a value if RegulatingControl.discrete is set to "false" or cases in which RegulatingControl.targetDeadband equals zero.

StaticVarCompensator

A facility for providing variable and controllable shunt reactive power. The SVC typically consists of a stepdown transformer, filter, thyristor-controlled reactor, and thyristor-switched capacitor arms.

The SVC may operate in fixed MVar output mode or in voltage control mode. When in voltage control mode, the output of the SVC will be proportional to the deviation of voltage at the controlled bus from the voltage setpoint. The SVC characteristic slope defines the proportion. If the voltage at the controlled bus is equal to the voltage setpoint, the SVC MVar output is zero.

Core

Native Members

connected

1..1

Boolean

The connected status is related to a bus-branch model and the topological node to terminal relation. True implies the terminal is connected to the related topological node and false implies it is not.
In a bus-branch model, the connected status is used to tell if equipment is disconnected without having to change the connectivity described by the topological node to terminal relation. A valid case is that conducting equipment can be connected in one end and open in the other. In particular for an AC line segment, where the reactive line charging can be significant, this is a relevant case.
