Abstract
Optimal reconfiguration of Radial Distribution System (RDS) is performed under the umbrella of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems to achieve the best voltage and improved current profile with minimal kW losses. Significant amount of energy can be saved by reconfiguration of Radial Distribution Systems (RDS) without compromising radial nature of the system. However, due to inherent difficulty associated with RDS, it is often not possible to obtain an optimal solution using mathematical programming techniques. In this paper, an improved load flow algorithm with better computational efficiency is proposed for RDS solution. Another Computational algorithm is proposed to obtain optimally reconfigured RDS with improved voltage profile, minimal branch currents and minimal kW losses. The results obtained are compared with the other published papers to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
