Abstract

This article presents a new fuzzy-based circular reconfiguration methodology for solving the reconfiguration problem of a radial distribution system. Multiple objectives are considered such as real power loss minimization, node voltage deviation minimization and branch current loading minimization while subjected to constraints of maintaining radial structure, all load energization and validation of KCL and KVL laws in the network. Further fuzzy membership functions are defined to normalize multiple objectives as well as to combine them to make a single objective. Present technique is applied to IEEE 69 radial distribution system under two loading conditions (constant power load, composite load), and the results are encouraging.
