A new methodology for technical losses estimation of radial distribution feeder

Power distribution feeders is one of the key contributors of technical losses (TL) as it is typically large in numbers and scattered over large geographic areas. Traditional approach using classical formulation or time series load flow simulations to determine TL in each and every feeder and feeder...
