An AC transmission line with additional power flow constraints specified by the system operator, more restrictive than the line's thermal limits.

For example, monitored lines can be used to restrict line flow following a contingency elsewhere in the network. See the flow_limits parameter. If monitoring is not needed, see Line

Arguments

  • name::String: Name of the component. Components of the same type (e.g., PowerLoad) must have unique names, but components of different types (e.g., PowerLoad and ACBus) can have the same name
  • available::Bool: Indicator of whether the component is connected and online (true) or disconnected, offline, or down (false). Unavailable components are excluded during simulations
  • active_power_flow::Float64: Initial condition of active power flow on the line (MW)
  • reactive_power_flow::Float64: Initial condition of reactive power flow on the line (MVAR)
  • arc::Arc: An Arc defining this line from a bus to another bus
  • r::Float64: Resistance in pu (SYSTEM_BASE), validation range: (0, 4)
  • x::Float64: Reactance in pu (SYSTEM_BASE), validation range: (0, 4)
  • b::FromTo: Shunt susceptance in pu (SYSTEM_BASE), specified both on the from and to ends of the line. These are commonly modeled with the same value, validation range: (0, 2)
  • flow_limits::FromTo_ToFrom: Minimum and maximum permissable flow on the line (MVA), if different from the thermal rating defined in rating
  • rating::Float64: Thermal rating (MVA). Flow through the transformer must be between -rating and rating. When defining a line before it is attached to a System, rating must be in pu (SYSTEM_BASE) using the base power of the System it will be attached to
  • angle_limits::MinMax: Minimum and maximum angle limits (radians), validation range: (-1.571, 1.571)
  • g::FromTo: (default: (from=0.0, to=0.0)) Shunt conductance in pu (SYSTEM_BASE), specified both on the from and to ends of the line. These are commonly modeled with the same value, validation range: (0, 100)
  • services::Vector{Service}: (default: Device[]) Services that this device contributes to
  • ext::Dict{String, Any}: (default: Dict{String, Any}()) An extra dictionary for users to add metadata that are not used in simulation, such as latitude and longitude.
  • internal::InfrastructureSystemsInternal: (Do not modify.) PowerSystems.jl internal reference
