=== Definition ===
A Powerflow Case Component is all or part of a Powerflow Case Definition stored separately as an .xml file. Components are created by exporting all or selected parts of a Powerflow Case Definition to the Component Library. 

=== Purpose ===
Components can be directly imported into new Case Definitions at any time.  Components can also be made available to other users of ''EMarketOffer'' and incorporated into their Case Definitions.

=== Component Classes ===

A Powerflow Case Component can contain data from any one of three levels:
#The whole Definition
#A whole class (e.g. Demand for all Nodes)
#Individual items within a class (e.g. selected Circuits within the circuit class)
