✦ Research context

What this agent contributes to the literature.

Problem solved

Researchers lacked a single consolidated reference for distribution test system parameters.
Inconsistent or missing network data prevented reproducible comparison of power flow and optimization algorithms.
Power systems researchers benchmarking distribution algorithms need standardized feeder topologies and electrical parameters.

Novelty

Provides a standardized catalogue of radial and meshed distribution test feeder parameters and diagrams.
