This paper studies service restoration in distribution network with distributed generation (DG). After the occurrence of fault in a distribution network, loads get disconnected and service to the affected loads should be restored through a network reconfiguration procedure. The introduction of DG has great effect on service restoration and network reconfiguration. In this paper, the impact of DG on...
In order to solve the problem of service restoration in distribution network based on distributed generation, this paper treated it as a multi-object nonlinear optimization problem with constrains like the type, capacity and priority of important loads. Four possible operation modes are considered in this paper, and loads are classified into three levels. Further, islanding algorithm based on a new...
Higher amount of current flowing through a transmission line increases transmission loss, especially when current exceeds its limit, as higher current generates more heat resulting increasing line resistance.
