ElmFeeder attributesPowerFactory Feeder

Every attribute of the PowerFactory Feeder (ElmFeeder): 69 input parameters and 196 result variables, with units and meaning. Copy a name into GetAttribute or SetAttribute.

What ElmFeeder is

A feeder: the radial path that starts at one cubicle, used for voltage profiles, feeder load scaling and feeder results.

69 input parameters and 196 result variables, in 3 calculations

Read and write ElmFeeder in Python

import powerfactory

app = powerfactory.GetApplication()          # GetApplicationExt() from outside PowerFactory

for obj in app.GetCalcRelevantObjects("*.ElmFeeder"):
    print(obj.loc_name, obj.GetAttribute("loc_name")) # Name

obj = app.GetCalcRelevantObjects("*.ElmFeeder")[0]
obj.SetAttribute("loc_name", "Feeder 1")      # rename the feeder
  • An input parameter is read and written with or without its e: prefix: GetAttribute("outserv") and GetAttribute("e:outserv") give the same value.

ElmFeeder input parameters

The element data, as typed in GetAttribute and SetAttribute (the e: prefix is optional). Setting one changes the model.
