Circuits as defined: elements, customers and feeder screening. See Network.

Circuits and their elements

Circuit	The circuit currently compiled in OpenDSS.
Line	A line or service cable as the circuit defines it.
Load	A load at its defined (not time-varying) rating.
Transformer	A distribution transformer as the circuit defines it.
PVSystem	A rooftop array: inverter rating, array rating and connection.
StorageUnit	A battery: power and energy rating, connection and current state.

Customers and transformers

residential_loads	Enumerate the low-voltage residential loads on a live circuit.
transformer_customers	The customer buses each transformer supplies, found by walking its low-voltage network.
read_transformers	Read transformers from an OpenDSS definition file.
select_by_utilisation	Choose the transformers to record, held fixed across scenarios.
screen	Peak apparent power and voltage extremes per transformer over a window.

Describing a feeder

profile_circuit	Describe a compiled circuit at its defined loading.
CircuitProfile	What a circuit contains, at its defined loading.
measure_sensitivity	Measure how far the worst bus voltage moves when the loading is raised.
VoltageSensitivity	How far the worst bus voltage moves per unit of substation demand.
attach_weather	Join weather columns onto a result frame, for use as forecasting inputs.
MVVoltageProfile	MV busbar voltage, anti-correlated with regional demand.
