Reverse action of "Tap Line" action
Hello everyone.
Is there an opposite operation to the "Tap Line" operation, that is, an operation that connects 2 line sections and eliminates the busbar between them?

Hello everyone.
Is there an opposite operation to the "Tap Line" operation, that is, an operation that connects 2 line sections and eliminates the busbar between them?
No, there is no reverse activity to Tap Line.
Using equivalance activity EQRD to remove the bus and connect the two line sections to a direct line will not give the exactly same result.
Copy the line data from an old saved case with the line untapped.
"Tap Line" introduces dummy or extra bus at identified distance from each of the bus. Electrically circuit does not change unless the dummy bus is connected to any other network. So, in absence of network connected to extra dummy bus, no change is required. If reversal is intended with purpose, following steps may be helpful, 1) disconnect all networks connected to Dummy bus (this itself is electrically Ok) 2) save line parameters (lines on both sides of dummy bus to be deleted) 3) execute join bus (delete dummy bus and retain original bus) 4) update line parameters (sum of both side lines) Above steps can be executed through .py or .idv (can save macro)
