Mother of all Studies
Load Flow Analysis is an Engineering Art
The Art of duplicating and understanding
the steady-sate behavior of Power Systems
First studies to be done to validate the project model
Last studies to be done to validate other studies
Has contradictory objectives with SC & TS studies
Need to consider past, present & future conditions
Need to consider all possible operating conditions
Compare limits & duties for the correct operation of
the power systems apparatus

Panel System
Assumptions:
• Vrated (internal load) = Vrated (Panel Voltage)
• Note that if a 1-Phase load is connected to a 3-Phase
panel circuit, the rated voltage of the panel circuit is
(1/√3) times the rated panel voltage
• The voltage of L1 or L2 phase in a 1-Phase 3-Wire panel
is (1/2) times the rated voltage of the panel
• There are no losses in the feeders connecting a load to
the panel
• Static loads are calculated based on their rated voltage

Therefore, for load connected between phases B and C:
For load connected to phase B
SBC = VBC.IBC
PBC = VBC.IBC.cos θ
QBC = VBC.IBC.sin θ
SB = VB.IB
PB = VB.IB.cos (θ - 30)
QB = VB.IB.sin (θ - 30)
And, for load connected to phase C
SC = VC.IC
PC = VC.IC.cos (θ + 30)
QC = VC.IC.sin (θ + 30)

If a 1-Phase panel is connected to a 3-Phase bus
having a nominal voltage equal to 0.48 kV, the
default rated kV of the panel is set to (0.48/1.732
=) 0.277 kV
