=== Load Transmission Data Panel ===
 +
 +
==== Access ====
 +
The '''Data > Load Data''' menu option in the Powerflow Case Definition Window.
 +
 +
==== Purpose ====
 +
To specify the date range of Transmission data you want to load into a Powerflow Case Definition from you default Transmission System data source.
 +
 +
==== The default ''EMarketOffer'' data source for Transmission System data ====
 +
When uploading Transmission System data into a Powerflow Case ''EMarketOffer'' first checks the Inputs sub-folders for valid grid files, and uses these in preference to data from an online database, even when a connection to obtain Transmission System data has been defined.
 +
 +
=== Transmission System Data Loading Modes ===
 +
Transmission System data can be loaded into a Powerflow Case Definition in one of two modes:
 +
*Date Range Mode
 +
*Period Mode
 +
 +
==== Date Range Mode ====
 +
Accessed by clicking on the "Date Range" tab under the "Transmission" heading.
 +
 +
===== Purpose =====
 +
To select a date range for loading a Powerflow Case Definition with Transmission System data.
 +
 +
A Definition loaded through the Date Range Mode will contain the following:
 +
*Base Grid Configuration
 +
*All Re-ratings applied during the date range
 +
*All Equation Constraints applied during the date range
 +
 +

 +

 +
*End Date = Last date of the Effective Date Range
 +
*Clear and Load = Checked
 +
*Include Transmission System data in next load operation
 +
|}
 +
 +
 +
==== Period Mode ====
 +
Accessed by clicking on the "Period" tab under the "Transmission" heading.
 +
 +
===== Purpose =====
 +
To select a specific period which will provide the basic Transmission System data for all periods in your Powerflow Case Effective Date Range.
 +
 +
NOTE: When using Period Mode ''EMarketOffer'' applies the basic grid and re-ratings to obtain the System Configuration for the Period and applies this to all periods in the Powerflow Case Effective Date Range.  It does not keep specific records of Circuit re-ratings or Equation Constraints, which are kept when loading in Date Range Mode.
 +
 +
Control of the Transmission data takes place through the Load Transmission Data Panel in Period Mode.

#''EMarketOffer'' flags a Circuit as re-rated if the Branch Constraint data file contains a rating change for the Circuit that starts before or during the Forecast Effective Date Range and that ends during or after the Effective Date Range. Many of the re-ratings in the grid data files are for prolonged durations. It is therefore quite likely you will see a Circuit flagged as re-rated while the rating throughout the chosen Powerflow Case Effective Date Range remains constant.

Load Transmission Data Panel

Access

The Data > Load Data menu option in the Powerflow Case Definition Window.

Purpose

To specify the date range of Transmission data you want to load into a Powerflow Case Definition from you default Transmission System data source.

The default EMarketOffer data source for Transmission System data

When uploading Transmission System data into a Powerflow Case EMarketOffer first checks the Inputs sub-folders for valid grid files, and uses these in preference to data from an online database, even when a connection to obtain Transmission System data has been defined.

Transmission System Data Loading Modes

Transmission System data can be loaded into a Powerflow Case Definition in one of two modes:

  • Date Range Mode
  • Period Mode

Date Range Mode

Accessed by clicking on the "Date Range" tab under the "Transmission" heading.

Purpose

To select a date range for loading a Powerflow Case Definition with Transmission System data.

A Definition loaded through the Date Range Mode will contain the following:

  • Base Grid Configuration
  • All Re-ratings applied during the date range
  • All Equation Constraints applied during the date range
Components
Component Purpose
Date Selectors
Allows you to specify the inclusive dates to start/end loading Transmission data into the Definition

Keep and Overwrite Check box
Keeps existing Transmission data and overwrites with new data from the database
Last Load Operation Details
Records when Transmission data was last loaded into the Definition
Include Transmission Data in Load Check box
To include or exclude Transmission data from the next Load Operation
Reset Button
Restores the entire Transmission Load Panel (file and database) to its default settings:
  • Start Date = First date of the Effective Date Range
  • End Date = Last date of the Effective Date Range
  • Clear and Load = Checked
  • Include Transmission System data in next load operation


Period Mode

Accessed by clicking on the "Period" tab under the "Transmission" heading.

Purpose

To select a specific period which will provide the basic Transmission System data for all periods in your Powerflow Case Effective Date Range.

NOTE: When using Period Mode EMarketOffer applies the basic grid and re-ratings to obtain the System Configuration for the Period and applies this to all periods in the Powerflow Case Effective Date Range. It does not keep specific records of Circuit re-ratings or Equation Constraints, which are kept when loading in Date Range Mode.

Control of the Transmission data takes place through the Load Transmission Data Panel in Period Mode.
