Parameters

Config

NameLabelTypeDefaultUnitsDescription
resistanceRdouble1Ohms (Ω, , pu, S)Resistance value. Pick a unit from the dropdown; pu / Siemens conversions read the bases from the Units tab.
measure_currentMeasure currentenum (Off / On)0Emit branch current as a simulator observable.

Current Monitoring

NameLabelTypeDefaultUnitsDescription
current_nameCurrent namestringISignal name for the measured branch current. Change the default `I` when you have multiple measured components — duplicate ids collide.

Units

S_baseS_base (MVA)double100System base apparent power in MVA. Used by `pu` impedance / admittance conversions in this component's `computations` block.
V_baseV_base (kV)double230Base RMS line-to-line voltage in kV. Used by `pu` impedance / admittance conversions in this component's `computations` block.
