New Diagram) : 1. Explain Binding & Unbinding

This document outlines the steps for 6 labs introducing power flow analysis using PSS/E software. Lab 1 covers opening PSS/E, loading case files, and explaining key components like buses, branches, loads and generators. Lab 2 demonstrates creating a 1-line diagram and slider file to model system components and growth. Lab 3 practices switching lines in and out and solving to observe flows. Lab 4 generates ACCC reports to compare results from outages. Lab 5 modifies monitoring files and re-runs ACCC reports. Lab 6 adds load and generation by splitting a line, adding a bus, transformer and wind farm.
