Description:
With the increasing of penetration of distributed in the smart grid, the problems that the power loss increasing and short circuit capacity beyond the rated capicity of circuit breaker will become more serious. In this paper, a methodology (Modified BPSO) is presented for network reconfiguration which is based on hybrid approach of Tabu Search and BPSO algorithms to prevent the local convergence and to decrease the calculation time using double fitnesses to consider the constraints. Moreover, an average load simulated method (ALS method) load variation considered is proposed that the average load value is used to instead of the actual load to calculation. Finally, from a case study, the results of simulation certify the approaches will decrease drastically the losses and improve the voltage profiles obviously, at the same time, the short circuit capacity is also decreased into less the shut-off capacity of circuit breaker. The power losses won’t be increased too much even if the...
