Distribution feeder line models
Abstract
Starting with a modified version of Carson's equations, this paper develops distribution feeder models that can be used in the power flow and short circuit analysis of unbalanced three-phase distribution feeders. A simple line section is used to demonstrate the differences in voltage drops that occur between the various models for load conditions varying from balanced to very unbalanced.>

For LV feeders, the effect of the neutral conductor is often eliminated by applying Kron reduction to obtain a three-phase representation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
