    Hi Paul,

    Please note that

    \[\begin{align*}
    c^2 + s^2 = constant
    \end{align*}\]

    is not a SOC relaxation. It is a nonconvex equality constraint. You probably want to formulate the Jabr inequality given as

    \[\begin{align*}
    c_{km}^2 + s_{km}^2 \leq c_{kk} \cdot c_{mm}
    \end{align*}\]

    where \(c_{kk}\) and \(c_{mm}\) happen to be constant in your example.

    Please note that the Gurobi ACOPF Optimod can automatically construct the convex SOC relaxation for given OPF data in MATPOWER format.

    Best regards, 
    Jaromił
