“…DG sources are modeled as negative load, and its effect on power flow is considered as voltage constraints. So far, meta-heuristic algorithms with various efficiency and accuracy and with different objective functions have been presented for the reconfiguration and placement problem of DG such as GA (Saonerkar and Bagde, 2014;Ajmal et al, 2021;Mahdavi et al, 2021), PSO (Jena and Chauhan, 2016;Saleh et al, 2018;Rafi and Dhal, 2020b), SFLA (Arandian et al, 2014;Azizivahed et al, 2017;Onlam et al, 2019), fuzzy (Sedighizadeh and Bakhtiary, 2016;Mohammadi et al, 2017;Hosseinimoghadam et al, 2020), and ABC (Jamian et al, 2014;Quadri and Bhowmick, 2020;Dashtdar et al, 2022c).…”
