ElmTerm attributesPowerFactory Terminal
Every attribute of the PowerFactory Terminal (ElmTerm): 117 input parameters and 391 result variables, with units and meaning. Copy a name into GetAttribute or SetAttribute.
What ElmTerm is
A terminal: a busbar, a junction node or an internal node. Node results are read here: voltage magnitude and angle after a load flow, fault levels after a short circuit, frequency during an RMS simulation.

Read and write ElmTerm in Python
import powerfactory
app = powerfactory.GetApplication() # GetApplicationExt() from outside PowerFactory
app.GetFromStudyCase("ComLdf").Execute() # results exist after a calculation
for bus in app.GetCalcRelevantObjects("*.ElmTerm"):
u = bus.GetAttribute("m:u") # Voltage, Magnitude, p.u.
ul = bus.GetAttribute("m:Ul") # Line-Line Voltage, Magnitude, kV
print(bus.loc_name, u, ul)
bus = app.GetCalcRelevantObjects("*.ElmTerm")[0]
bus.SetAttribute("outserv", 1) # take the terminal out of service- An input parameter is read and written with or without its
e:prefix:GetAttribute("outserv")andGetAttribute("e:outserv")give the same value. - RMS and EMT variables change over time: record them in a results object (
ElmRes) to read the whole curve.GetAttributeafter a run gives the value at the last time step.
