Create load report

View on GitHub

Sample viewer app

Create a simple electric distribution report that displays the count of customers and total load per phase by tracing downstream from a given point.

Image of create load report

Use case

You can use a load report to display the customers per phase as well as the load per phase based on a chosen starting point in a utility network. Load reports are used for electric load restoration and balancing.

How to use the sample

Choose phases to be included in the report. Tap "Run" to initiate a downstream trace on the network and create a load report. Tap "Reset" to clear the phase summaries in the report and start over.

How it works

Create and load an AGSUtilityNetwork with a feature service URL, then get an asset type, tier, network attributes, and category by their names.
Create an AGSUtilityElement from the asset type to use as the starting location for the trace.
Get a base condition by calling the utility tier's makeDefaultTraceConfiguration method.
Create AGSUtilityTraceParameters passing in downstream trace type and the default starting location. Set its traceConfiguration property with the trace configuration above, and set includeBarriers to false.
Create an AGSUtilityCategoryComparison where "ServicePoint" category exists.
Reset the functions property of the trace configuration with a new AGSUtilityTraceFunction adding a "Service Load" network attribute where this category comparison applies. This will limit the function results.
Set outputCondition with this category comparison to limit the element results.
Populate the choice list for phases using the network attribute's codedValues property.
When the "Add" button is tapped, add the selected phase to a phases list.
When the "Run" button is tapped, run a trace for every AGSCodedValue in the phases list. Do this by creating an AGSUtilityTraceOrCondition with the base condition and an AGSUtilityNetworkAttributeComparison where the "Phases Current" network attribute does not include the coded value.
Display the count of "Total Customers" using the elements property of the result, and the result of "Total Load" using the first and only output in functionOutputs property.

About the data

The Naperville electrical network feature service, hosted on ArcGIS Online, contains a utility network used to run the subnetwork-based trace shown in this sample.

Using utility network on ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8 requires an ArcGIS Enterprise member account licensed with the Utility Network user type extension. Please refer to the utility network services documentation.
