I have a problem with the ACCC OVERLOAD REPORT. When I do a ACCC, the value of flows for the branches is not the value in the metered side of the branch or the largest flow. I think that the side of the value is arbitrary. I need to know the largest value to calculate overloads with python. Can you help me?

The code is:

ierr = psspy.dfax([0,1],subfile,monfile,confile,dfxfile)   
ierr = psspy.accc_with_dsp_2(_f,[0,0,0,1,1,0,0,0,0,0],r"""ASTURIAS""",dfxfile,accfile,"","")

sumry = pssarrays.accc_summary(accfile=accfile)

rate = sumry.rating.a

for lbl in sumry.colabel:

       rlst  = pssarrays.accc_solution(accfile=accfile,colabel=lbl,stype=stype_cnt, busmsm=busmsm,sysmsm=sysmsm)

       for i in range(len(rlst.mvaflow)):
            mvaflow = rlst.mvaflow[i]

Thanks in advance!

Can you show the code you are using now to run the ACCC report? Is it Python?

Hey I think the issue you're seeing is due to how percent loading is calcualted on transformer vs. non-transformer branches. Transformers are by default on MVA loading whereas non-transformer are current expressed as MVA loading (assumes nominal voltage). Look in the Program Operation Manual for more on this, specifically ACCC and RATE. ACCC reports the line end with the larger loading.

Thanks Cajief! You were right! I've found the solution. I've changed the next configuration: Misc/OPTN... /Non transformer Percent Units-> MVA.
