Description
Please note: Previous experience in PowerFactory basics, or attendance at an introductory course, is essential. The Self E-Learning course Introductory Course: Load Flow and Short Circuit Calculation, for example, can be used to acquire the necessary basic knowledge.
Python is a programming language that can be used to control PowerFactory. It is commonly used to automate the execution of time-consuming simulations, but its uses extend far beyond that. Python can also be used to process results, or to implement a routine that makes sequential changes to a network, calling PowerFactory’s analysis functions at each step.
This course provides a concise and efficient introduction to the fundamental aspects of writing scripts within PowerFactory using Python. The course covers basic concepts, syntax, accessing and modifying objects from within the code, automating a series of calculations and presenting the results, etc.
A number of scripts will be created during the course to inspire your own ideas or to adapt to specific requirements.
Important hint: This training will be held for PowerFactory 2025. Older versions may have a different structure in the menus or do not yet have some of the functions presented.
