Abstract:A restoration problem in a radial electrical distribution system (EDS) is solved to restore deenergized loads downstream of sectors affected by a permanent fault, transferring loads among primary feeders through switching operations. As it is a computationally complex problem, its resolution by exact optimization techniques in a treatable runtime is a difficult task. The complexity is related to the number of switches available for solution. To reduce investment costs, a typical EDS has switches only in a port… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
