Description

I want to do a simulation in a MV/LV network where there are two or three slack buses. Is it possible to do that in Matpower? if yes, how to do that? when we have multiple slacks do we need to multiply them with some participation factors? How to find out the participation factors for the network? is there any matpower case which has multiple slacks?

Research direction

Start by reviewing MATPOWER's power-flow documentation and existing case files for how a slack bus is represented. Investigate whether multiple slack buses and participation factors are already supported, then document the required configuration or define the missing behavior and a representative case demonstrating it.
