As Dr. Zimmerman has said at least one generator is required at slack bus to run load flow, one can assume the substation bus where power is incoming as slack bus and place an equivelent generator at that bus to run distribution load flow.
Best of Luck.

I took data from Baran n wu reconfiguration 32 us data ......there is problem while running the load flow as data priscibe as in case9 is not same what i put for 32bus data....as what i take bus one as slake bus remaining PQ bus .....the runpf is having error because there is no generator data in what i enter there is only BUS AND LINE data....so please sir help to this problem.
