Voltage and current imbalance have adverse impacts on power systems such as power loss
increase, communication interference, and component lifetime reduction. This paper …

In this paper, the concepts related to loss partitioning among the phase currents in three-
phase distribution systems are revisited in the light of new findings identified by the authors …

The neutral wire in most existing power flow and fault analysis software is usually merged
into phase wires using Kron's reduction method. In some applications, such as fault analysis …

This paper discusses the methods of modelling a European style TT grounded low voltage
(LV) distribution system without increasing computational complexity and with increased …

Load flow methods for power distribution systems are quite different in comparison to
transmission systems owing to some special topological features. Over years various load …

Single Wire Earth Return (SWER) systems are used for supplying electricity at low cost,
where electricity supply is required for small populations of people dispersed across wide …

Rural electrification rate (RER) in Africa is still low to date. Several countries in Sub-Saharan
Africa have tried to address this problem using conventional single-phase two-wire or three …

This research presents an improved optimal conductor size selection scheme for single wire
earth return (SWER) in power distribution networks for rural electrification. The power …

The use of the ground as the current return path often presents planning and operational
challenges in power distribution networks. This study presents optimization-based models …

The effect of increased connections of micro generation technologies can only be truly
analysed if accurate distribution network models are used. Such models must be 4-wire …
