##### Control logic for power flow with automatic tap changing

We provide the control logic used for tap changing. For simplicity, we demonstrate the case where the regulator control side and the transformer tap side are at different sides.

In the case where the control side of the regulator and the tap side of the transformer are at the same side, the control logic of taps will be reverted (see `user_manual/calculations:Initialization and exploitation of regulated transformers`).

The exploitation of the neighbourhood ensures that the actual optimum is not accidentally missed due to feedback mechanisms in the grid.

The control logic assumes that the (compensated) control voltage decreases when the tap position changes (increases when the control side of the regulator and the tap side of the transformer are at different sides, or decreases they are at the same side).
671671
If the line drop compensation impedance is high, and the control side has generator-like behavior, then this assumption does not hold, and the calculation may diverge.

Hence, this assumption is reflected in the requirements mentioned in {hoverxreftooltip}`user_manual/components:Line drop compensation`.
