This paper presents a fuzzy system for reliability-based power distribution network planning. The proposed Mamdani type inference with subsequent application of the Bellman-Zadeh decision-making method is used to evaluate reliability line feeders as criteria Unplanned outages components, Energy Not Supplied (ENS) and age lines are input variables fuzzified using triangular functions. model was ...
