Course Overview

In-Depth Exploration of Specialized Electrical Engineering Skills

PSSE Automation with Python

Introduction:

In this course participants will learn the basics of the Python language and how to automate PSS®E using the Python APIs.

Participants who have little or no experience with Python will have the tools they need to start writing Python programs and driving PSS®E from Python. Participants with stronger programming and PSS®E skills will be able to make their processes more powerful and efficient. Upon completing this course, the participant will have the tools needed to write advanced programs in Python to drive PSS®E and process the output.

Course Contents:

This course is intended to enhance the attendees’ skills and make them efficient in automating PSSE software using Python.
