Measurement

Create Function

Input Parameters

net.measurement

Parameter

Datatype

Value Range

Explanation

type

string

“p”
“q”
“i”
“v”

Defines what physical quantity is measured

element_type

string

“bus”
“line”
“transformer”

Defines which element type is equipped with the measurement

value

float

Measurement value

std_dev

float

Standard deviation (same unit as measurement)

bus

int

must be in
net.bus.index

Defines the bus at which the measurement is placed. For line or transformer measurement it defines the side at which the measurement is placed (from_bus or to_bus).

element

int

must be in
net.line.index or
net.trafo.index

If the element_type is “line” or “transformer”, element is the index of the relevant element. For “bus” measurements it is None (default)

check_existing

bool

Checks if a measurement of the type already exists and overwrites it. If set to False, the measurement may be added twice (unsafe behaviour), but the performance increases

index

int

Defines a specific index for the new measurement (if possible)
