Simulator eases the process of inserting a bus at some location along an existing transmission line. This feature can be extremely useful when you want to add a new generation site to a model, for example. Rather than having to delete an existing line, place the bus, and draw two new transmission lines, Simulator simplifies the task to a one-step process.
A line can be tapped from a oneline diagram, the transmission line case information display, or by going to the Tools ribbon tab and choosing Modify Case > Tap Transmission Line from the Edit Mode ribbon group. From the oneline diagram, right-click on a transmission line and select Insert Line Tap from the popup menu. From the case information display, simply right-click on the corresponding branch record and select Tap Transmission Line from the popup menu. Any of these methods will open the Automatic Line Tap Dialog for setting up and inserting the new bus.
Note that transmission lines may be split only from Edit Mode. You cannot access this functionality from Run Mode.
