This paper presents a fuzzy multi-objective approach for achieving the minimum active power loss and the maximum voltage magnitude in order to improve the efficiency of radial distribution networks with distributed generations. Multi-objective function are considered for load balancing among the feeders, minimization of the real power loss, deviation of nodes voltage, and branch current constraint violation, while subject to a radial network structure in which all loads must be energized. Originality of the research is that the fuzzy-based multi-objective optimization in reconfiguration of distribution network including the distributed generation in order to improve the efficiency of the networks. The implementation of the fuzzy multi-objective for distribution reconfiguration on a 70 nodes distribution network with distributed generation is described. The original efficiency of the network is 95.142%. The simulation results show that efficiency of the network is increased to 96.942% by using fuzzy multiobjective method.
