The rapid increase of distributed generations (DGs) has many benefits for distribution systems and could result in some negative effects. Identifying the optimum locations and sizes for these units increases the benefits and limits the negative effects. Many researches tried to define the optimal DG siting and sizing. Either normal operation or faulty conditions have been considered in this process...
Distributed generators (DGs) provide many benefits for distribution networks, however they increase the fault current level and cause miscoordination between the protective devices. This paper presents a framework to determine the optimal locations and permissible capacity limits of inserting DGs in the distribution system using the genetic algorithm (GA). A multi-objective function is developed based...
This paper presents an analytical technique for fault location in distribution systems in presence of distributed generation (DG). The presence of DG changes the nature of power flow from unidirectional to multidirectional. Therefore, the accuracy of impedance-based fault location methods will be affected by the presence of DG. The proposed technique is a modification of impedance-based methods to...
