ABSTRACT
Distribution systems hold an extremely critical position in the power system since its primary point of link is between bulk power and consumers. An effective and planned distribution network is the way to adapt with the ever increasing demand for commercial, domestic and industrial load. The power flow or load-flow study of radial distribution network is of prime significance for effective planning and execution of load transfers. Power companies are keen on finding the most efficient configuration for minimization of real power loses and load balancing among distribution feeders to save energy and in improving the general performance of distribution system.
