EnergyConsumer

Class Description

Generic user of energy - a point of consumption on the power system model.
EnergyConsumer.pfixed, .qfixed, .pfixedPct and .qfixedPct have meaning only if there is no LoadResponseCharacteristic associated with EnergyConsumer or if LoadResponseCharacteristic.exponentModel is set to False.

Attributes

Name	Type	Description
customerCount	Integer	Number of individual customers represented by this demand.
grounded	Boolean	Used for Yn and Zn connections. True if the neutral is solidly grounded.
p	ActivePower	Active power of the load. Load sign convention is used, i.e. positive sign means flow out from a node.
		For voltage dependent loads the value is at rated voltage.
		Starting value for a steady state solution.
q	ReactivePower	Reactive power of the load. Load sign convention is used, i.e. positive sign means flow out from a node.
		For voltage dependent loads the value is at rated voltage.
		Starting value for a steady state solution.
pfixed	ActivePower	Active power of the load that is a fixed quantity and does not vary as load group value varies. Load sign convention is used, i.e. positive sign means flow out from a node.
phaseConnection	PhaseShuntConnectionKind	The type of phase connection, such as wye or delta.
qfixed	ReactivePower	Reactive power of the load that is a fixed quantity and does not vary as load group value varies. Load sign convention is used, i.e. positive sign means flow out from a node.
