Zone Display Objects

Concept Link IconSee Also

 

Zone records in the load flow data can be displayed as objects on a Simulator oneline diagram. This can be useful for building a diagram on which you also want to include representations of groups of devices by zone.

To insert a Zone object, select Aggregation > Zone from the Individual Insert ribbon group on the Draw ribbon tab. Then left-click on a oneline diagram in the location where the Zone object should be placed. This will open the Zone Display Options dialog, which will allow you to choose the zone information to display, and set parameters for the displayed object. It is important to note that zone records, unlike other objects like buses and transmission lines, cannot be added to the load flow data graphically. To add a new zone record to the load flow case, you need to change the zone designation of a device in the load flow case to a new zone number, or you need to insert a new zone from the Zone Records.
