lights - Residential lighting (explicit model)

Synopsis

class lights {
	parent residential_enduse;
	class residential_enduse {
		loadshape shape;
		enduse load; // the enduse load description
		complex energy[kVAh]; // the total energy consumed since the last meter reading
		complex power[kVA]; // the total power consumption of the load
		complex peak_demand[kVA]; // the peak power consumption since the last meter reading
		double heatgain[Btu/h]; // the heat transferred from the enduse to the parent
		double heatgain_fraction[pu]; // the fraction of the heat that goes to the parent
		double current_fraction[pu]; // the fraction of total power that is constant current
		double impedance_fraction[pu]; // the fraction of total power that is constant impedance
		double power_fraction[pu]; // the fraction of the total power that is constant power
		double power_factor; // the power factor of the load
		complex constant_power[kVA]; // the constant power portion of the total load
		complex constant_current[kVA]; // the constant current portion of the total load
		complex constant_admittance[kVA]; // the constant admittance portion of the total load
		double voltage_factor[pu]; // the voltage change factor
		double breaker_amps[A]; // the rated breaker amperage
		set {IS220=1} configuration; // the load configuration options
