The quality of service provided to rural electric customers can be improved with the accurate modeling and analysis of a distribution feeder. With the use of an analysis program developed for a personal computer, it is possible for an engineer to solve existing feeder voltage profile and loss problems and to plan feeder additions that will improve the quality of service to the customers with reduced losses to the cooperative. The authors describe the accurate model of a distribution feeder and its devices that are incorporated into a radial distribution analysis program (RDAP) developed for the personal computer. An example rural distribution feeder is modeled to demonstrate how the program is used to solve typical design and operational problems
