What do you like best?

This is the best electromagnetic transient (EMT) type simulation software currently available. It consists of almost all the power system component models and all the control functions required to carry out a perfect simulation. It is really easy to develop a given network in PSCAD user interface. Also it allows to develop user defined custom models, which is very easy to develop if you know little bit of FORTRAN programming. Now it comes with features like parallel simulation, muti-rate simulation etc.

What do you dislike?

Inability to undock the master library is annoying. When I'm working with multiple monitors, it would be really easy to develop a case if I can get the master library to one display and the PSCAD work-space to another display.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

These are lots to PSCAD/EMTDC than it appears. You can use it for develop and validate new models, black-box new control functions etc. Also anyone can automate the simulation with the PSCAD automation library.
