In this paper, a new load flow algorithm is proposed on the basis of distributed load modeling in radial distribution networks. Since the correct state data in the distribution power networks is basic for all distribution automation algorithms in the Distribution Automation System (DAS), the distribution networks load flow is essential to obtain the state data. DAS Feeder Remote Terminal Units (FRTUs) are used to measure and acquire the necessary data for load flow calculations. In case studies, the proposed algorithm has been proven to be more accurate than a conventional algorithm; and it has also been tested in a simple radial distribution system.
