Features and Improvements

  • Transient Stability: Added error checking for using a distribution equivalent which could not support the load specified. This was caused because the distribution equivalent impedances are given on an MVABase that is proportional to the MW of the load. In a situation which had a load of 2.0 MW and 120 Mvar, the load would exceed the maximum power transfer of the distribution system because the Mvar values was so huge relative to the MW. An appropriate error message will now be shown.
  • Transient Stability: Modified to not model motors which are less than 0.01 MW and added appropriate warning message to indicate this
