General Elm Components
- Sylvain Ménard
On this page:
Note: The following is the list of components that are only supported through ePHASORSIM native library. If you are missing support for your components, you can check out the ePHASORSIM Modelica User Defined Library, there you can find out how to use the existing Modelica models or create your own Modelica model.
Common Data
The following attributes are common to all imported components:
Parameter | Description | Acceptable Values |
|---|---|---|
| Unique identifier for DGS-XML file | Any Value |
| Location Name. A human readable description of the component | Any Value |
| Out of service |
|
Note: The loc_name, ID and FID attributes are used to create the components unique name.
This name must be used when referencing IO pins as described in I/O Pins for PowerFactory Data.
Note: All components that exist in the DGS-XML file will be imported and considered to be in-service.
That means for a component that is out-of-service in PowerFactory, the Solver imports its data and treats it as in-service. Thus, it is recommended to remove the data from the input file for the components that are required to be out-of-service during simulation.
