AbstractAn electrical power system consists of Generation, Transmission, Subtransmission, Distribution and Load. To be practical, such as system must be safe, reliable, economical, benign to the environment, and socially acceptable. The increasing size and complexity of a modern-day power system have made it essential to utilize digital computers for effective solutions of problems of design, analysis, operation and control of such a system. To need for a computer usually arises when one deals with problems of a repetitive nature, sometimes so complex that to obtain a solution by hand computation is virtually impossible. Such problems (power flow calculations, economic dispatch, etc.,) are very commonly found in power systems and their solution through large (Gross, 1986). This study a computer program based on the calculating board is the only means of making power flows and short circuit studies in the 115 kV transmission network in Vientiane province, Xeset network in Saravan province and 230 kV transmission network in Bolikhamsay province in Lao.P.D.R.
