The proliferation of distributed energy resources (DERs) in distribution grids enables the active coordination of these assets to reduce costs and enable cleaner operations. Realizing this potential requires solving multiphase AC optimal power flow (AC-OPF) quickly across varying loads, DER availabilities, and topology reconfigurations, at much greater speed and scale than conventional nonlinear solvers. Learning-based surrogates can offer millisecond inference, yet existing methods target largely balanced transmission systems and do not scale to the multiphase, unbalanced, and reconfigurable nature of distribution feeders at utility scale. We present the Penalty + Sequential Linearized Feasibility Seeking (SLFS) algorithm, a self-supervised learning framework for multiphase distribution AC-OPF under switch-induced topology changes. Penalty+SLFS requires no labeled optimal solutions and trains directly from the AC-OPF objective and constraints through a differentiable fixed-point power flow solver, avoiding expensive label generation and admitting robust training procedures. Topology changes are handled efficiently using Sherman-Morrison-Woodbury updates of the admittance-matrix inverse, while an M-step Jacobian approximation accelerates differentiation through the power flow solver. At inference, SLFS repairs any infeasible predictions, providing feasibility guarantees with low computational overhead. On IEEE feeders ranging from 13 to 8,500 nodes, Penalty+SLFS achieves negligible optimality gaps and near-zero constraint violations, delivers up to three orders of magnitude speedups over IPOPT, and remains robust under large distributional shifts, demonstrating a viable path toward real-time, topology-aware AC-OPF for large-scale distribution grids.
