Chapter 11AC Elements
This chapter addresses editors for all AC elements in the One-Line Diagram. Except for the element IDs,bus connections, and status, all other data that appear in the editors are considered engineering properties,which are subject to Base and Revision Data. The following table lists all the AC elements in ETAP thatare included on the AC toolbar.

Bus
You can enter the properties associated with AC buses (nodes) of the electrical distribution system in thisData Editor.The ETAP Bus Editor allows you to model different types of buses in an electrical system. The dataentered in the Bus Editor is used when running all types of system studies.
Note
: Specifying bus generation or loading is not done from the Bus Editor. Generators, motors, andstatic loads are elements and can be connected to any desired bus. ETAP can display all loads,generators, and utilities that are directly connected to the bus from the Bus Editor. Protective devices areignored when ETAP determines connections to buses.A bus is defined as a point (node) where one or more branches are connected. A branch could be a cable,transformer, etc. The minimum amount of data required to define a bus is the bus nominal kV which canbe entered in the Info page of the Bus Editor. Once entered, this value is defined as a unique bus in thesystem model, which can be connected to other buses/nodes by placing branches between them.Buses have two types of graphical presentation, i.e., Bus or Node. You can change a bus to a node orvice versa at any time. This option gives you the flexibility to display annotation of buses and nodesdifferently.The Bus Editor includes the following pages of properties:InfoProtection Phase V HarmonicLoad ReliabilityMotor/Gen RemarksRating CommentArc Flash

Info Page
You use the Info page to specify the bus ID, Service& State, Nominal kV, Initial/Operating Voltage(Magnitude and Angle), Diversity Factors (Maximum and Minimum), FDR Tag, and Equipment Nameand Description.
Info
ID
This is a unique ID name containing up to 25 alphanumeric characters.ETAP automatically assigns a unique ID to each bus. The assigned IDs consist of the default bus ID plusan integer, starting with the number one and increasing as the number of buses increase. The default busID (Bus) can be changed from the Defaults menu in the menu bar or from the Project View.Recommendations for assigning buses are as follows:
