Dear all,

i'm trying to run PSSE with Python automation from Matlab, but can anyone of the community please tell me if i'm doing this correctly?

I have a python file test.py containing the following lines:

import os,sys

PSSE_LOCATION = r'C:\Program Files (x86)\PTI\PSSEUniversity33\PSSBIN'

sys.path.append(PSSE_LOCATION)

os.environ['PATH'] = os.environ['PATH'] + ';' + PSSE_LOCATION

import psspy

and then follow the lines where i open a RAW file, and do power flow analysis**

then, in Matlab i use the command ! python test.py the exclamaton mark allows to run the command from the command line of the operating system.

However, this gives the error Traceback (most recent calls last): file "test.py" , line 8, in <module> import psspy 'Importerror', bad magic number in 'psspy': b'\x03\xf3\r\n'

Does anybody know how to correct this? Thanks!!!
