| Units: | MW |

| Default Value: | 1E+30 |
| Validation Rule: | Any Value |
| Key Property: | No |
| Description: | Rated maximum (overrides Max Flow) |
The optional Line properties Max Rating and Min Rating are usually used to de-rate a transmission line periodically.
Example:
| Line | Property | Value | Units | Timeslice |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MEL-SYD-220kV | Max Flow | 400 | MW | |
| MEL-SYD-220kV | Max Rating | 380 | MW | SUMMER |
| MEL-SYD-220kV | Min Rating | -340 | MW | SUMMER |
| MEL-SYD-220kV | Max Rating | 400 | MW | WINTER |
| MEL-SYD-220kV | Min Rating | -390 | MW | WINTER |
Note that Min Rating defaults to the negative of Max Rating if it is not defined.
Note further it is very important that, if Max Rating is defined 'at all' that you provide a value for every period, otherwise the Max Rating for the 'missing' periods will be zero.
