This column is used to in conjunction with the Maintenance Study functionality. It defines the desired cycle in months for maintenance scheduling. For example, a value of 12 will result in one outage being scheduled annually. This must be included for any units with Schedule Maintenance set to TRUE.
NOTE: By default, Aurora will extrapolate future outages during a standard run (Run Maintenance Study NOT checked) if the input Maintenance Schedule table (MST) does not cover the study period. To change this so that only specified outages are recognized, then Schedule Maintenance must be set to FALSE (or blank) and Maintenance Length and Maintenance Cycle must be blank.
