Sensitivity Factors

The relationship from every node to any branch in the network model is provided within the sensitivity factor tables. These are calculated using PSS/E load flow software and are used to determine the effect of increasing net demand at each node to net forward power flow along sensitive branches and the amount of curtailment required for any connection.

Please see the guidance document for further information.
