MATLAB: Not able to connect Specialized power systems and Simscape blocks

no connectionSimscape Electrical

Hi,
I am not able to connect the Simscape and Specialized power system blocks? Why is that they both have respective blocks. For example: AC source is availabel under SIMSCAPE and also under Specialized power systems. I am using MATLAB after a long time and I ma bit confused. sorry

Simscape Electrical provides two simulation technologies: Libraries Compatible with Simscape Technology and Specialized Power Systems Library. See Simscape Electrical Block Libraries for more details.
The recommended approach is to build your entire model in one of the technologies. Unfortunately, it's not possible to directly connect blocks from multiple technologies although converter blocks are provided should it be necessary.
For low-detail semiconductor models you can use either technology. For multidomain models, and models with options to add higher levels of detail, use the blocks which are compatible with Simscape Technology.
