This collection has 8 documents: 1. share_Network.xlsx 2. share_PREDIS_RD.slx 3. share_PREDIS_opendss_model.dss 4. share_PossibleUseCase_PythonOpenDSS.txt 5. share_RealTimePredis_Summary.txt 6. share_RealTimePredis_InitializatioScript_Typhoon.txt 7. share_RealTimePredis_ComWithOpenStart_Typhoon.txt 8. share_RealTimePredis_ComWithOpenOnTimer_Typhoon.txt These files aim to share the required information to build the grid described in: M. C. Alvarez-Herault et al., "An Original Smart-Grids Test Bed to Teach Feeder Automation Functions in a Distribution Grid," in IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, vol. 33, no. 1, pp. 373-385, Jan. 2018, doi: 10.1109/TPWRS.2017.2695401. The file “share_Network.xlsx” contains the minimum required specifications to build the grid in any environment (such as in OpenDSS). Also, a Simulink model (share_PREDIS_RD.slx) has been added for those who master Matlab/Simulink. An OpenDSS model of the aformentioned grid has been added to speed-up its utilization. Moreover, it is proposed to interface through python (https://pypi.org/project/opendssdirect.py/). The collection includes an example of this integration (share_PossibleUseCase_PythonOpenDSS.txt).
