Pressing the Import button first Once the importing procedure is started, the Python API analyzes the PSCAD circuit and prepares a python Python script that uses the Python API. This script will rely relies on data that will be stored in a folder named ConversionReports_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-mm., located next to the PSCAD file. The python Subsequently, the Python script is then run and executed, importing the model will be imported into HYPERSIM.   Components are labeled with Each component is assigned a unique identifier corresponding that corresponds precisely to their its PSCAD identification number for , facilitating easy reference to the original design. Depending The duration of the conversion process varies depending on the size of the model size and the number of components , the conversion process can take involved, often taking several minutes.

After the import process is complete, reports containing information on overall conversion finished, reports are created within the aforementioned conversion report folder. These reports provide information about the overall success and performance , as well as of the conversion, along with a list of any components that may not have not been converted, are generated in the previously mentioned conversion report folder.successfully converted.
