Features and Improvements

  • Case Information Displays: Changed the column header for a branch named "XF Auto" to instead be "Automatic Control". It was too easy to confuse this with auto-transformers which it is not related to.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Case Information Displays: When using Dynamic Formatting for any transient stability object and trying to highlight a particular field on a case information display, the dialog was not properly showing the list of available fields. This has been fixed.
    • Scheduled Actions: Fixed a bug in Scheduled Outage Action Revert operations where the Action Status was incorrectly set to INACTIVE rather than RESTORED
    • Transient Stability: Special Single Condition Filter Strings were not working when applied to transient stability objects. This has been fixed.
    • Transient Stability: When using the TSContingencyElement action to "Set Load 50 MW" or "Set Load 30%", PowerWorld would ignore the action if the load was presently not inservice. This mean that if at a time after the "Set Load" call had been made the Load was then Closed, the load would still come in at its full value. The Set Load commands are only changing an internal multiplier on the load, so it is reasonable to change this multiplier even when the load is not inservice, so the TSContingencyElement has been modified to not restrict "Set Load" commands to inservice loads.
