To use this template:

  • Configure your global and scenario variables by using gridmo's Model setup template.
  • Download this template using the download button above and load the template into the gridmo web-app.
  • Transfer your general tab data, global variables and scenario variables across using the 'Import' buttons in the gridmo web-app.

Assumptions​

danger

gridmo does not currently support TSAT, only PSS®E and PSCAD™. The TSAT tests are therefore not included in this template.

  • (Section 3.1.6.3) - Sub-synchronous tests are not yet included in this template, though the VQ oscillation tests as part of the AEMO DMAT template could be modified for this purpose.
