The Substation Records Display presents data describing each substation in the case. The Substation Display is a class of Case Information Display and therefore can be used in a manner consistent with all other case information displays. It has a local menu from which you can print, copy, and modify its records as well as view the information dialog of its associated substation. You can also sort the substation records by clicking on the heading of the field by which you want to sort. Additionally, you can choose to restrict the records shown by the Substation Records Display according to the constraints of the area/zone/owner filters. Finally, when Simulator is in Edit Mode, the local menu allows you to add new substations to or remove existing substations from the system. Note: a substation is considered in an area/zone if any single bus in the substation is in the area/zone.
To show the substation records display, select Aggregation > Substations in the Model Explorer.
By default, the substation records display contains the following fields:
Sub Num
An integer identifier for the substation.
Sub Name, Sub ID
Two alphanumeric identifiers for the substation.
Area Name, Zone Name
The names of the area and zone of the buses in the substation. If some of the buses in the substation are in different areas or zones, then this is the most common area or zone.
# of Buses
The number of buses inside the substation.
Nom kV
Nominal kV of the highest voltage bus(es) in the substation.
Gen MW, Gen MVR
Total real and reactive generation at the substation. If no generators are located at the substation, these fields are left blank.
Load MW, Load MVR
Total real and reactive load at the substation. If no loads are located at the substation, these fields are left blank.
Shunt MW, Shunt MVR
Total real and reactive shunt values at the substation. If no shunts are located at the substation, these fields are left blank.
