Abstract

Solar type distributed generation (DGs) becomes popular and extensively used by consumers as well as power producers on radial distribution systems. The presence of solar type DGs on radial lines affecting the switching operations of under load tap changers (ULTC) and shunt capacitors (SCs) in addition to power loss. This paper proposes a novel method in which reactive power of solar type DG and voltage controlled devices coordinated with particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with the help of forecast load. Problem formulated as multi objective function with switching operational cost and power loss cost. Proposed method tested on 10 kV, 16 buses practical system in Matlab environment and results compared with conventional method to demonstrate the effectiveness without failing the grid conditions.
