Gauss Load Flow. (Not to be confused with Gauss-Seidel)

This algorithm can only be used for PQ and SL busses.

Data needed:
Line impedance, Nominal voltage, bus connections, and power use.

Plots a connection plot with results.

The result is compared with a PowerFactory Model. With approximately 0.1% deviation in voltage amplitude and max 2% deviation in voltage phase angle. (PF uses Newton Raphson which is more precise).
