Remotely Regulated Bus Display

Concept Link IconSee Also

 

The Remotely Regulated Bus Display provides information about all buses that are remotely regulated by one or more generators, transformers, or switched shunts. The bus that a generator regulates is specified in the Edit Mode using the Generator Dialog. Whenever a generator is regulating a bus that is not its terminal, it is considered to be remotely regulating that bus. The bus that is remotely regulated, along with the regulating generators, will appear on this display. The same logic is true for transformers and switched shunts which may regulate remote buses also.

The Remotely Regulated Bus 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 information as well as view the information dialog of its associated buses. You can find a specific remotely regulated bus, and you can learn more information about a particular remotely regulated bus by choosing either Quick Power Flow List or Bus View. You can also sort the remotely regulated bus information by clicking on the heading of the field by which you want to sort. Additionally, you can choose to restrict the information shown by the Load Display according to the constraints of the area/zone/owner filters.

To call up the Remotely Regulated Bus Display, open the Model Explorer and select Remotely Regulated Buses under the Solution Details folder.

 

This Remotely Regulated Bus Display contains the following fields by default:

Number, Name, Area Name

Number, name, and area name for the bus that is being remotely regulated.

PU Volt

Per unit voltage magnitude for the bus.

Set Volt

Setpoint voltage for the bus. When a bus is being remotely regulated by a set of generators, the generators vary their reactive power output to maintain the voltage at the bus at the setpoint value. You can enter a new value for this field. Changing the setpoint voltage here changes the setpoint voltage for all the generators that are remotely regulating this bus.

Volt Diff

Per unit difference between the actual voltage magnitude and the set point voltage magnitude.

AVR

Combined automatic voltage regulation (AVR) status for all the generators remotely regulating this bus. If AVR is No, no generators regulate voltage; if AVR is Yes, all the available generators are regulating; if AVR is Mixed, some generators regulate voltage and some do not. Regulation of individual generators can be specified using the Generator Display . You can toggle this field between "Yes" and "No" by clicking on it.

Total Mvar

Total of the reactive power being supplied by all the generators remotely regulating the bus.

MVR Min, MVR Max

Total of the minimum and maximum reactive power limits for all the generators remotely regulating the bus.

Remote Regs (gen)

Provides a comma-separated list of all the generators which regulate this bus.

Rem Regs (XFMR)

Provides a comma-separated list of all the transformers which regulate this bus.

Rem Regs (SS)

Provides a comma-separated list of all the switched shunts which regulate this bus.
