Preliminary Checks
Description
Currently there are two types of reducer:
- three phase reducer: That reduces all downstream loads to its nearest upstream three phase node
- primary reducer: that reduces all downstream nodes to its nearest upstream primary node (i.e. kV >= 1 kV)
However, we might also need a reducer that only removes the secondary split phase split_phase_reducer. Reducer 2 removes all the three phase load transformers too as such transformers typically have secondary voltage ratings of 208V, 480V, or 600V which gets filtered out by reducer 2. Reducer 1 can be used but it does not maintain the unbalanced nature of the distribution grid for laterals with phase configurations such as phase A, phase AB, etc.
