Engineering detail, on demand

Turn on extra context, thresholds, and operational notes without cluttering the default view.

  • Frequency control bands: highlighting primary and secondary response thresholds.
  • Inertia context: explaining how synchronous generation smooths sudden changes.
  • Ramp rate notes: why wind, solar, and thermal respond at different speeds.
  • Operational callouts: when balancing margins tighten or widen.
