This section contains load unit parameters. The first line in the load unit data section must say: [LOAD UNIT DATA]. This is followed by the data described below. A blank line ends the section.
1. Bus Name: Name of the bus to which the load is attached, enclosed in quotation marks.
2. Base kV: Nominal kV of the bus.
3. Load Unit Identifier: A two-character identifier used to differentiate between multiple load units on the same bus. The identifier is enclosed in quotation marks.
4. In-Service Flag: 1 if the load is in-service; 0 if it is not. The default value is 1.
5. MW Constant Power: Megawatts (constant-power component) consumed. The default value is 0.0.
6. MVAR Constant Power: Megavars (constant-power component) consumed. The default value is 0.0.
7. MW Constant Current: Megawatts (constant-current component) consumed when the voltage is at 1.0 per unit. The default value is 0.0. The constant-current component is not yet working in this version.
8. MVAR Constant Current: Megavars (constant-current component) consumed when the voltage is at 1.0 per unit. The default value is 0.0. The constant-current component is not yet working in this version.
9. MW Constant Impedance: Megawatts (constant-impedance component) consumed when the voltage is at 1.0 per unit. The default value is 0.0.
10. MVAR Constant Impedance: Megavars (constant-impedance component) consumed when the voltage is at 1.0 per unit. The default value is 0.0.
11. Tags: Tag string with a maximum of 512 characters. Tags in string are separated by semicolon. Any alpha-numeric characters can be used, except for the string delimiter (single or double quotation mark). The tag string is enclosed in quotation marks.
12. In-service Date: Set to 0 if not available. Otherwise enter an unsigned 32-bit integer that store the year/month/date information given by the CTime object in Microsoft Foundation Class.
13. Out-of-Service Date: Set to 0 if not available. Otherwise enter an unsigned 32-bit integer that store the year/month/date information given by the CTime object in Microsoft Foundation Class.
An example load unit data section is shown below.
