Distribution System Modeling and Analysis [Book Reviews]

This new edition is very timely given the international attention on smart grids, including increased demand for better modeling and analysis methods to support planning and operations of smart distribution systems. The book is an authoritative textbook on the subject of distribution system modeling and analysis. It develops models for each component in a distribution feeder using generalized matrices and develops the modified ladder technique to perform load flow analysis and a method in the phase domain to perform short circuit analysis.
