This class combines the elements of ``ExportSystemDesign`` and the ``OffshoreSubstationDesign`` modules. Its purpose is to represent the export system more accurately by linking the type of cable (AC versus DC) and substation’s components (i.e. transformers versus converters).Figure 1 shows how to add ElectricalDesign() to a yaml diff --git a/docs/source/phases/design/doc_OffshoreSubstationDesign.rst b/docs/source/phases/design/doc_OffshoreSubstationDesign.rst index ec393be6..ef309b47 100644 --- a/docs/source/phases/design/doc_OffshoreSubstationDesign.rst +++ b/docs/source/phases/design/doc_OffshoreSubstationDesign.rst @@ -16,4 +16,4 @@ References ---------- ..
