Power Flow for a Four-Wire Radial Low Voltage Distribution Grid with a Single Point Grounded Neutral

The forward/backward sweep is the most commonly used power flow method in radial Low Voltage Distribution Grids (LVDGs). In most cases, Kron's reduction is used to merge the neutral conductor with the phase conductors. However, important information can be lost by ignoring the effect of the neutral conductor through the Kron's reduction method, since in LVDGs the majority of loads are single-phase connected and are supplied through a phase...
