Popis
Shrnutí:Customer satisfaction counts very much to the electric power distribution companies. The improvement of reliability indices is an effective way to achieve this goal. The optimal placement of power switches is a desirable procedure because while it reduces investment in network assets, it also reduces the number of customers not supplied by outages and, accordingly, improves system reliability. This paper proposes a multiobjective optimization approach for switch placement based on the particle swarm optimization method applied to radial distribution networks of power utilities. The proposed algorithm gives a set of solutions instead of a single one. It intends to be a valuable and flexible tool for planning modern and reliable power distribution networks. Simulation results when using the IEEE 123-node test system and the Roy Billinton Test System are presented as testbeds.
