Abstract
This disclosure describes techniques to evaluate power usage and characteristics on a power distribution system. The power distribution system may include local distribution systems as well as transmission systems. Additionally, this disclosure describes techniques to evaluate the power load on a power system, for example, by using two variable characteristics to model a power load as a sum of a constant impedance load and a constant power load.
