 Mag (AC:L-G, RMS DC:Pk)

REAL

Constant

For an AC source, enter the line-to-ground, RMS source current. For DC, enter the peak current [kA]

Frequency (0 for DC)

REAL

Constant

Source frequency (enter 0.0 for DC) [Hz]

Initial Phase

REAL

Constant

Initial source phase shift [°]

Ramp Up Time

REAL

Constant

Enter a time for the source to ramp up to 1.0 pu.

Use a minimum ramp up time of 3 times the fundamental frequency period (i.e. 0.05 s for 60 Hz and 0.06 s for 50 Hz) in most cases to reduce start-up transients [s]
