Three models of a distribution system are developed in this paper. Included are descriptions of simulation models of the diverse components of a typical distribution system. The three system models are illustrated by examples. They are applied to an actual feeder and the results are analyzed to show the advantages and disadvantages of each model. A unique method is developed for combining the discrete distributed load voltage drop solution with the discrete distributed load losses solution. The development of this combined method is in the form of a tutorial , as are the developments of the components of this method. The conclusion is reached that it is possible to reduce many complex feeders to simple models in the study of feeder voltage profiles and losses with negligible error.
