Power grid areas

The power grid is divided (electrically) into areas in EFI-SNITT.DAT.

This file contains input for:

  • Header (counter)

  • Interconnections

    • End-point connection areas and busbars

Note

It is important that the N interconnections in EFI-SNITT.DAT are identical and in the same order as the N first transport channels in MASKENETT.DATA and KOMBSNITT.DAT. These interconnections define the electrical division of areas.

Header counter

Defines the number of interconnections in the file.

Record format:

<Number of interconnections>,

Example:

3,

Interconnections

Describes interconnections connecting two areas with corresponding busbars.

Interconnection header

Interconnection line counter and connecting areas.

Record format:

<Lines in interconnection>,<From area>,<To area>,

Fields:

  • 1: Number of lines in the interconnection

  • 2: From area

  • 3: To area

Example:

The inteconnection consist of 2 lines between areas 2 and 3.

Interconnection lines

Connection end-point busbars

Record format:

<Busbar from>,<Busbar to>,<description>,

Fields:

  • 1: Busbar from

  • 2: Busbar to

  • 3: Description (optional)

Example:

The interconnection consist of 2 lines between areas 2 and 3 as defined in the interconnection header. The lines N22 - N13 and N22 - N14 connects busbars 20022 - 30012 and 20022 - 30014. Where busbar 20022 is in area 2 and busbars 30013 and 30014 are in area 3.
