I believe treating them as branches is probably the best way in MATPOWER. Then
you can simply use the BR_STATUS column to indicate whether they are open or
closed. You’ll have to keep a separate list of which branches are ties. If it
is convenient, you could put a list of the branch row indices of the ties in
your own custom field in mpc.

Dear all,
I am working on the placement of distributed generators into a 69 bus radial
distribution system.
The network I am working on contains normally open ties. I was entering the
information concerning these ties as branches in the case file.
Is there a way to specify that these branches are ties or manually create ties?
I would be glad if I can get some help on this issue.
Best Regards,
Jessica
