Selecting the method for node impedance calculation

Select the standard method which applies to all nodes by default For selected nodes, you can set a different method.

Setting the standard method for node impedance calculation

For the node impedance calculation, you can select a method as standard method. This method is applied to all nodes, for which the attribute Use preset method for impedance at node is not activated.

1.  For the desired nodes, deactivate the value of the Use preset method for impedance at node attribute.

2.  From the Calculate menu, choose General procedure settings.

The General procedure settings window opens.

3.  In the navigator, select PrT settings > Node impedances.

4.  In the Standard method selection list, click the desired entry (Fundamentals: Impedances at nodes).

5.  Adjust the settings for the selected method.

Setting the method for node impedance calculation for selected nodes

For single nodes, you can set a node impedance calculation method which differs from the default method.

1.  For the desired nodes, activate the value of the Use preset method for impedance at node attribute.

2.  For the selected nodes, select the desired method as value of the Method for impedance at node attribute.

3.  Adjust the settings for the selected method.
