Terminal

Class Description

An AC electrical connection point to a piece of conducting equipment. Terminals are connected at physical connection points called connectivity nodes.

Attributes

NameTypeDescription
phasesPhaseCodeRepresents the normal network phasing condition. If the attribute is missing, three phases (ABC) shall be assumed, except for terminals of grounding classes (specializations of EarthFaultCompensator, GroundDisconnector, GroundSwitch, and Ground) which will be assumed to be N. Therefore, phase code ABCN is explicitly declared when needed, e.g. for star point grounding equipment.
The phase code on terminals connecting same ConnectivityNode or same TopologicalNode as well as for equipment between two terminals shall be consistent.

Terminal0..*TopologicalNode0..1TerminalThe terminals associated with the topological node. This can be used as an alternative to the connectivity node path to terminal, thus making it unnecessary to model connectivity nodes in some cases. Note that if connectivity nodes are in the model, this association would probably not be used as an input specification.TopologicalNodeThe topological node associated with the terminal.

Terminal0..*ConnectivityNode0..1TerminalsTerminals interconnected with zero impedance at a this connectivity node.ConnectivityNodeThe connectivity node to which this terminal connects with zero impedance.
Terminal0..*ConductingEquipment1TerminalsConducting equipment have terminals that may be connected to other conducting equipment terminals via connectivity nodes or topological nodes.ConductingEquipmentThe conducting equipment of the terminal. Conducting equipment have terminals that may be connected to other conducting equipment terminals via connectivity nodes or topological nodes.
Terminal0..1RegulatingControl0..*TerminalThe terminal associated with this regulating control. The terminal is associated instead of a node, since the terminal could connect into either a topological node or a connectivity node. Sometimes it is useful to model regulation at a terminal of a bus bar object.RegulatingControlThe controls regulating this terminal.
Terminal1MutualCoupling0..*First_TerminalThe starting terminal for the calculation of distances along the first branch of the mutual coupling. Normally MutualCoupling would only be used for terminals of AC line segments. The first and second terminals of a mutual coupling should point to different AC line segments.HasFirstMutualCouplingMutual couplings associated with the branch as the first branch.

Terminal1AuxiliaryEquipment0..*TerminalThe Terminal at the equipment where the AuxiliaryEquipment is attached.AuxiliaryEquipmentThe auxiliary equipment connected to the terminal.
Terminal1MutualCoupling0..*Second_TerminalThe starting terminal for the calculation of distances along the second branch of the mutual coupling.HasSecondMutualCouplingMutual couplings with the branch associated as the first branch.
