If you're looking to use python scripting to help automate growing a diagram, then the commands

psspy.newdiagfile()
psspy.growbuslevels(busnumber, xposition, yposition, numlevels)

may be helpful. These commands will create a new diagram file, and start growing the displayed network elements from the input bus number based on the number of levels supplied.

I used to organize components like generators into tables based on their areas with the following script:

# Generators in subsystem 0
psspy.bsys(0,0,[ 0.38, 525.],0,[],0,[],1,[12],0,[])
ierr, (bus_arr, area_arr) = psspy.agenbusint(0, flag=4, string=["NUMBER", "AREA"])

# Group generators by areas
barras_por_areas = {}
for bus, area in zip(bus_arr, area_arr):
    barras_por_areas[area] = barras_por_areas.get(area, []) + [bus]

# Make a table of generators ()
columns = 10
offset = 0
for area in barras_por_areas:
    for i, bus in enumerate(barras_por_areas[area]):
        psspy.growdiagram_2(1,1,["BU   {}".format(bus)], i % columns, -offset - i // columns,[0,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1])
    offset += i // columns + 2 # Doble row to skip to another area

Is not a proper SLD but it helps as a visualization tool to easily check the data.
