A Review on Distribution Feeder Reconfiguration Methods

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________ _Abstract: Distribution Feeder Reconfiguration (DFR) is a critical analysis to optimize and control the distribution system and an important function of distribution automation system. Distribution feeders are configured radially. Their configurations may be varied with manual or automatic sw...

Multi-objective Distribution Feeder Reconfiguration

In the context of modern power systems the multi objective feeder reconfiguration problem has assumed significant importance. This paper presents a fuzzy set theory based approach for the multi objective network reconfiguration of distribution system. The multiple objectives which are met are feeder balancing, minimize power losses, feeder-current constraints and deviation of node voltage. The ...

A comparison of two heuristic approaches for distribution feeder

In this paper, a comprehensive comparison of two distinct heuristic search approaches to solve the distribution switchin9 problem is presented. One approach is' based on a priority list of switches of the main search path defined by the feeder tie switch upstream to the substation. The other approach uses evaluation functions to address the problem. Evaluation functions are defined based on fee...

An Analytical Approach for Optimal Placement of Combined Dg and Capacitor in Distribution Feeder

In the present deregulated environment, optimal placement of Distributed Generation (DG) and shunt capacitor in the distribution network plays a vital role in distribution system planning. In this paper, an analytical approach for optimal placement of combined DG and Capacitor units are determined with the objective of power loss reduction and voltage profile improvement. Firstly, the DG unit i...
