I didn’t write the code for the power summation method, so I wasn’t aware that it did not handle multiple generators at a single bus. I consider this a bug. Would you mind creating a bug report for it here<https://github.com/MATPOWER/matpower/issues>?

However, if we add those P and Q's to the same bus for multiple DG's P and Q and represent it as a single bus then it doesn't give an error.

Sir, when we use this data for the generator matrix, it gets solved using Newton's Power Flow but gives this error: MATPOWER Version 7.1, 08-Oct-2020 -- AC Power Flow (Power Summation) Warning: Matrix is singular to working precision. > In calc_v_pq_sum (line 53) In radial_pf (line 63) In runpf (line 283) In Code (line 118) Power summation did not converge in 20 iterations when using the Forward-Backward Sweep method. I have considered the case33bw distribution network. Shouldn't the Forward-Backward Sweep method be better able to solve this network, considering it is a distribution network? Or is Newton's Power Flow modified to accurately solve radial networks as well? <image.png>
