The paper analyzes options of using smart meters for power flow calculation and for assessing the state of a real three-phase four-wire secondary distribution network based on measurements of average values of active and reactive power and of voltages. The work is based on the authors’ research on allocation of measurements to ensure secondary distribution network observability and on selection of the most efficient method for linear and non-linear state estimation. The paper illustrates solution of a problem on identification composition of load nodes in the phases and reveals challenges related to voltage account in the neutral wire and in its grounding.

In the planning and operation of distribution network, flow calculation and optimal flow is the hot issue for many experts and scholars to study. In network reconfiguration, service restoration and capacitor configuration, it needs hundreds even thousands times of power flow calculation. So it is very important to propose a suitable optimization algorithm. Based on the three-phase model we proposed hybrid particle swarm algorithm to calculate the three-phase power flow. The method uses the superposition principle. The distribution network is divided into two network models, one is the pure radial network without cyclic structure, and another is the pure cyclic network without radiation structure. We do iterative calculation respectively using hybrid particle algorithm, getting the calculation results. The hybrid algorithm is a new reference for the future optimization of power flow calculation in this paper.

The difference between schedule power flow and online power flow is that the former has no corresponding physical power flow, while the latter is the reappearance of existing physical power flow. Owing to the different premise, the selection of power flow calculation’s known quantities can be different. A schedule power flow schedules physical power flow for power system, so the selection of known quantities has strict requirements, such as active power and reactive power regulation capability. Since the physical power flow exists, the selection of online power flow calculation’s known quantities can be more flexible. For example, we can choose load bus as slack bus or replace PQ bus with PV bus. The example demonstrated that we could locate the stealing electricity buses by choosing load bus as slack bus. Considering that voltage amplitude measurement accuracy is higher than reactive power measurement accuracy, we can replace PQ bus with PV bus and make the power flow calculation results more consistent with the physical power flow. Finally, the examples show that online power flow calculation’s known quantities can be selected flexibly according to the actual situation rather than strictly following the classical power flow calculation requirements.

The paper is devoted to the problem of power flow calculation and steady state analysis methods adaptation for four-phase electrical grids. These methods are based on developed models of four-phase power lines and phase convering transformers. The basis of research is nodal voltages equations for three-phase, four-phase and mixed (combined by three-and four-phase elements) grids. Algorithm of four-phfase elements parameters automized adaptation for power flow calculation model of "RastrWin" software have been developed.
