Transmission Line Terminal
One end of a transmission line. References a Transmission Line Model by name (single- or three-phase) and pairs with a second terminal sharing the same Transmission Line name. The two paired terminals are assembled into one synthetic Tline at netlist time; the terminal itself carries the electrical node (single-phase or 3-phase, depending on the selected model).

Parameters
Config
| Name | Label | Type | Default | Units | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
tline_model | Transmission Line Model | string | (empty) | — | The Transmission Line Model this terminal uses. Pick from the models placed on the canvas. The model decides whether this terminal is single-phase or three-phase. |
transmission_line_name | Transmission Line name | string | (empty) | — | Name that pairs this terminal with exactly one other. Two terminals sharing this name form one transmission line. Suggestions list lines that still need a partner. |
measure_current | Monitor current | enum (Off / On) | 0 | — | When On, this terminal publishes the current flowing at its pin as an observable. Each end of the line is monitored independently. |
current_dir | Positive Current Direction | enum (Into Terminal / Out From Terminal) | out | — | Sign convention for the monitored current. 'Into Terminal' = positive when current flows into this terminal (toward the line); 'Out From Terminal' = positive when current flows out of this terminal (toward the network). |
Current Monitoring
| Name | Label | Type | Default | Units | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
current_name | Current name | string | (empty) | A (A, kA) | Signal name for this terminal's current. Leave blank to auto-name it after the line. Single-phase only. Pick a unit; the published value is scaled to it. |
current_name_a | Phase A current name | string | (empty) | A (A, kA) | Signal name for phase A current at this terminal. Leave blank to skip phase A. Pick a unit; the published value is scaled to it. |
current_name_b | Phase B current name | string | (empty) | A (A, kA) | Signal name for phase B current at this terminal. Leave blank to skip phase B. Pick a unit; the published value is scaled to it. |
current_name_c | Phase C current name | string | (empty) | A (A, kA) | Signal name for phase C current at this terminal. Leave blank to skip phase C. Pick a unit; the published value is scaled to it. |
