Abstract :
Recent interest in constructing complete three-phase models of power systems has rekindled the debate over the appropriate models for transformers. This debate involves discussions about the appropriate role of such traditional power system analysis tools as the per-unit system and symmetrical components. This panel summary gives the author´s perspective on this debate. Recent drivers of the need for three-phase models include distribution system analysis, distributed generation, harmonics analysis, and unbalanced line losses.
