Every half cycle (at the appropriate voltage zero), the shunt resistor is updated to reflect the non-linear load effect as a function of RMS voltage and frequency. Similarly, the shunt inductor or capacitor, in parallel to the load resistor, is updated every half cycle (at its voltage zero) to reflect its non-linear characteristic.
