<p>Emilie,</p>
<p> You'll need to modify the Type173 proforma. Double click on it
in the direct access tool (in the directory tree on the right, not
in your project) and switch to the "variables" tab then click on
the button at the top of the window. Select the "inputs" tab then
select the input in question and click "modify." Change the units
to amperes then close and save the proforma. Next, go to your
project and right click on the Type173 and select "replace" from
the context menu. Browse to find the Type173a proforma again.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p> Out of curiosity, which version of Trnsys are you using? I
checked back to an early version of 17.1 and in that version both
the Type194 output and the Type173 input are both "amperes"</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> David</p>

I am encoutering a problem of conversion between 2 types in
TRNSYS. I linked a PV solar system with a fuel cell and my
problem is:</div>

The unit of the current in the PV solar system (type 194b) is

I suppose they are both units the same but the link cannot be

between them).</div>
