COMPARISON OF OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION AND CAPACITOR PLACEMENT FOR POWER LOSS REDUCTION USING DIFFERENT OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM

Optimal reconfiguration and placement are used to reduce power losses and keep the voltage within its allowable interval in power distribution systems considering voltage, current, and radial condition constraints. An effective method and different algorithms used to compare design performance. The ten algorithms as listed below are applied and tested on 16,33,69,118 and 119 bus IEEE test systems to find the optimum configuration of the network with regard to power losses. Five different cases are considered as mentioned below, and the effectiveness of the proposed technique is also demonstrated with improvements in power loss reduction, through MATLAB under steady-state conditions.
