This paper presents a branch exchange (BE) based heuristic network reconfiguration technique where, the proposed bus classification strategy remodels dynamically as per modified topology in order to provide reconfigured with minimum loss. Further, for fair allocation of active power losses, it develops new loss (APLA) which eradicates influence cross-term analytically from formulation without a...

Abstract Reliability and active power loss are two fundamental parameters in the design and planning of distribution systems that have always attracted the attention of power distribution systems designers and engineers. The improvement of reliability and the reduction of power loss are investigated as the primary objective functions and voltage profile as the secondary objective function. A me...

distributed generations (dgs) are utilized to supply the active and reactive power in the transmission and distribution systems. these types of power sources have many benefits such as power quality enhancement, voltage deviation reduction, power loss reduction, load shedding reduction, reliability improvement, etc. in order to reach the above benefits, the optimal placement and sizing of dg is...
