Abstract
This letter investigates properties of the second-order cone relaxation of the optimal power flow (OPF) problem, with emphasis on relaxation tightness, nodal voltage angles recovery, and alternating-current-OPF feasibility in meshed networks. The theoretical discussion is supported by numerical experiments on standard IEEE test cases. Implications for power system planning are briefly outlined.
