Properties

Property	Type	Required	Unit	Description
id	integer	yes	—	Unique integer identifier for this component.
name	string	yes	—	Name of the component. Components of the same type (e.g., PowerLoad) must have unique names, but components of different types (e.g., PowerLoad and ACBus) can have the same name.
peak_active_power	number	yes	MW / pu (by power_units)	Peak active power in the zone. Units: per power_units — NATURAL_UNITS: MW, COMPONENT_BASE: pu .
peak_reactive_power	number	yes	MVAr / pu (by power_units)	Peak reactive power in the zone. Units: per power_units — NATURAL_UNITS: MVAr, COMPONENT_BASE: pu .
base_power	number	yes	MVA	System base power for per-unitization of this component’s per-unit fields, recorded per component in lieu of a system-level table. Units: MVA.
power_units	string (UnitSystem)	yes	—	Unit basis for this component’s power-family fields (active/reactive/apparent power, ratings, limits, ramp rates). COMPONENT_BASE: per unit on this component’s own base_power. NATURAL_UNITS: the field’s physical unit.
