    public interface TieLine
    extends Branch<TieLine>, LineCharacteristics
    A tie line is an AC line sharing power between two neighbouring regional grids. It is constituted of two DanglingLine

    The tie line is always oriented in the same way,
    The network model node of the danglingLine1 is always at end 1.
    The network model node of the danglingLine2 is always at end 2.

    As there is no injection at the boundary node, by applying kron reduction, this node can be removed getting an equivalent branch between both network model nodes.

    Characteristics

    Attribute Type Unit Required Defaut value Description
    Id String - yes - Unique identifier of the tie line
    Name String - yes - Human-readable name of the tie line
    DanglingLine1 DanglingLine - yes - The first half of the line characteristics
    DanglingLine2 DanglingLine - yes - The second half of the line characteristics

    A tie line is created by matching two DanglingLine with the same Xnode code.
    We have two Dangling Lines within the Tie Line.

    In the CGMES import of an assembled model :
    A tie line is created by matching two links with the same boundary node.
    Each link can be:

    • A line.
    • A Breaker or Disconnector.
    • An equivalent branch.
    • A transformer with fixed ratio and zero phase shift angle.
