This section contains parameters of shunt units. The first line in the section must say: [SHUNT 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 shunt is attached, enclosed by quotation marks.
2. Base kV: Nominal kV of the bus.
3. Shunt Unit Identifier: A 2-character identifier used to differentiate between multiple shunt units on the same bus. The identifier is enclosed in quotation marks.
4. In-Service Flag: 1 if the shunt is in-service; 0 if it is not. The default value is 1.
5. G: Positive-sequence shunt conductance, G, in per unit. The same value is used in the negative sequence. The default value is 0.0.
6. B: Positive-sequence shunt susceptance, B, in per unit. The same value is used in the negative sequence. B is positive for capacitors and negative for reactors. The default value is 0.0.
7. G0: Zero-sequence shunt conductance in per unit. The default value is 0.0.
8. B0: Zero-sequence shunt susceptance in per unit. The default value is 0.0.
9. 3-Winding Transformer Shunt Flag: 1 if the shunt is part of the T model of a 3-winding transformer; 0 if is not. The default value is 0. This flag is for output purposes only. It has no effect on the solution.
10. 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.
11. 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.
12. 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 shunt unit data section is shown below.
