Abstract

This work presents a model of optimal dimensioning of electrical distribution networks that uses real scenarios, georeferenced and contrasted by simulation processes that analyze the deployment and variables within the planning of electrical networks. This model considers a stochastic load demand and the voltage levels of the electrical distribution network. Moreover, this work exposes the sizing of the radial electrical network, the possible conditions to avoid a load imbalance and in this way, to prevent a system failure.
