WireInfo

Class Description

Wire data that can be specified per line segment phase, or for the line segment as a whole in case its phases all have the same wire characteristics.

Attributes

Name Type Description
coreRadius Length (if there is a different core material) Radius of the central core.
coreStrandCount Integer (if used) Number of strands in the steel core.
gmr Length Geometric mean radius. If we replace the conductor by a thin walled tube of radius GMR, then its reactance is identical to the reactance of the actual conductor.
insulated Boolean True if conductor is insulated.
insulationMaterial WireInsulationKind (if insulated conductor) Material used for insulation.
insulationThickness Length (if insulated conductor) Thickness of the insulation.
material WireMaterialKind Conductor material.
rAC25 ResistancePerLength AC resistance per unit length of the conductor at 25 °C.
rAC50 ResistancePerLength AC resistance per unit length of the conductor at 50 °C.
rAC75 ResistancePerLength AC resistance per unit length of the conductor at 75 °C.
radius Length Outside radius of the wire.
ratedCurrent CurrentFlow Current carrying capacity of the wire under stated thermal conditions.
rDC20 ResistancePerLength DC resistance per unit length of the conductor at 20 °C.
sizeDescription String Describes the wire gauge or cross section (e.g., 4/0, #2, 336.5).
strandCount Integer Number of strands in the conductor.
