<strong>PowerWorld</strong> <strong>Simulator</strong>: Getting Started<br />

The key to using <strong>Simulator</strong> is to recognize that it has two distinct modes Edit Mode and Run Mode.<br />

The Edit Mode is used to construct new simulation cases or to modify existing cases, while the Run<br />

Mode is used to perform the actual power system simulation. You can easily switch between the<br />

modes using the Edit Mode and Run Mode buttons in the Mode ribbon group.<br />

If you are new to <strong>Simulator</strong> and seek a quick means of familiarizing yourself with it, we recommend<br />

starting with the tutorials; see Creating a New Case or Starting with an Existing Case<br />

Sample cases are provided with the software in the "Sample Cases" directory. If you’re interested in<br />

learning by doing, you may wish to just open one of the sample cases and try the different <strong>Simulator</strong><br />

features.<br />
