Is there sub 1 Minute level heat Addition in EnergyPlus?

Hello,

I am Trying to simulate a normal HVAC system with a Fan, Electric Heating Coil and a Cooling Coil. I get energy added by the heater in a timestep as below its addition capacity, as if the Heater was operating for a fraction of a Minute. Is this possible in EnergyPlus? Since the minimum Timestep is 1 minute how could this behavior take place?

Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

Nadish Anand
