Narrative:

Called 'field in sight' approximately 25NM east; straight in. Weather was extremely clear; day VFR; without any restrictions to visibility. Approach cleared us for visual approach. Final descent checklist accomplished prior to 1000' AGL. At 1000' AGL; aircraft was in a good profile to make a normal 25 flap landing. Flaps were selected to 20; not 25 (the briefed final flap setting). At 500' AGL; I called final flaps 25; and was shortly thereafter reminded by GPWS that: no; the flaps were not 25; issued the warning 'too low flaps'. After a brief moment of denial and disbelief; I commanded a normal go around to be accomplished. First officer flew a normal radar vector pattern to a visual approach. On downwind of the second approach; aircraft experienced a loss of the right AC transfer bus. EICAS irregular procedure checklists accomplished in accordance with the flight manual. Normal and uneventful landing accomplished.
