stochastically as a result of demand-time variation, and is also a function of dis-
tance and conductor impedance. These issues are illustrated in Figures 4.6 and 4.7.
The higher voltage network is assumed stiff (in the limit an infinite busbar),
thus the voltage profile in the lower voltage network must change direction around
this fixed voltage as a result of a change in power flow direction.
