This documnentation wants to give a short overview which power ports can be used for different applications.
The ActivePowerPort is only usable for concentrated grids without lines.
The ApparentPowerPort is only usable for radial distribution systems.
The ComplexPowerPort is the most advanced power port and can be used for interconnected grids.
