Optimum Placement of Distribution Generation Units in Power System with Fault Current Limiters Using Improved Coyote Optimization Algorithm

“…The major purpose of this work is to reduce the power losses of the power system and can be defined [ 8 , 16 ] as where is the resistance, presents the current of the distribution lines and shows total branches. Decreasing the fault current levels is a second important goal, which is measured [ 13 , 17 ] as …”

“…The active and reactive power levels of the DGs are laid between minimum and maximum limits [ 13 , 25 ], which are given as …”

“…In [ 12 ], the authors have investigated the optimum sizing and positioning of DGs in the power system by applying the Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (BFOA). In addition, the GA mechanism is proposed in [ 13 ] to save costs and achieve a setting position and FCLs in the distribution system. In [ 14 ], the authors have investigated the allocation of various types of DGs integrated with FCLs for a single stage, utilizing COA and an Electrical Transient Analyzer Program (ETAP) for general and faulty states.…”
