One-line Output Tab

To set Power Flow options, from the Power Flow menu, select PF Options.

Select the One-line Output tab to determine the type of results that are displayed on the one-line during power flow analysis.

Note: Text output is independent of one-line output. This means you can be viewing specific power flow results or attributes directly on the one-line, but displaying entirely different results in the text result windows.

Option Descriptions
Options Description

Show Units

Enables you to display units of branch flows and bus voltages.

Show Generator Controlled kV and Bus

Enables you to display the generator controlled bus and the voltage in kV. Generator power flows are always shown.

Global Decimal Precision

This sets the number of digits past the decimal point for values displayed on the one-line. This affects all results except bus voltage.

Voltage Decimal Precision

This sets the number of digits past the decimal point for bus voltage values displayed on the one-line.

Branch Side

You can choose to display both "From" and "To" branch flows or you can optionally restrict the display to just "From" or "To" the bus.

Bus Voltage

Voltages can be displayed in either physical units kV(LL) or V(LL) or in per-unit values.

Branch Flows

Branch flows can be displayed in any of the following units:

  • kW and kVAR
  • kVA and Power Factor
  • MW and MVAR
  • MVA and Power Factor
  • Current in Amps

Generation & Loads

Enables you to choose generator output and loads to be shown as any of the following:

  • kW and kVAR
  • kVA and Power Factor
  • MW and MVAR
  • MVA and Power Factor

Losses

System losses can be displayed in either kW and kVAR or MW and MVAR units.
