Abstract :
This paper presents a new procedure for solving the power flow for radial distribution feeders taking into account embedded distribution generation sources and shunt capacitors. Also, new approximation formulas are proposed to reduce the number of required solution iterations. The method used is different from the conventional well-known power flow methods. The proposed algorithm procedures are tested on sample feeder systems. Results are compared with those obtained using other distribution power flow methods.
