Dear Dr Zimmerman,

In an ACOPF, the Matpower seems to set Voltage_angle(bus1) = 0 . 

However, this is not required - although it is not a mistake. Is it compulsory 
to set this voltage_angle zero?

Thank you

MATPOWER does not compute the L-index directly. However, you may find the 
contributed (i.e. unsupported) continuation power flow code useful for finding 
PV curves. See cpf in Appendix E in the User's Manual.
