Why can't the dynamic simulation step time be smaller than 0.03s?

I found that the dynamic simulation step time can not be smaller than 0.03s. Is that true? Please help me with that problem. Thank you very much!

Large time constants may result to the instability of numerical simulation. You must select a time constant that can capture stability phenomena in the range of 0.1 - 10 seconds. Please consult PSS/E PAGV2.pdf manual for more information.

Normal time step is 0.01 s for 50 Hz systems and 0.008333 s for 60 Hz systems. You may have a problem with too short time constants in some dynamic models.
