The power flow does not enforce any limits (generator, voltage or branch flow 
limits). The only exception is that it will attempt to enforce generator 
reactive limits if the pf.enforce_q_lims option is true, which it does by 
relaxing the voltage setpoint at the generator when the reactive limit is 
reached.

If you want a solution that respects all limits, you will need to use the OPF.
