A Distribution Network Reconfiguration Method Considering Weather Conditions

Article Preview

Abstract:

A distribution network reconfiguration method with the considerations of time-varying weather conditions is proposed. The aim of distribution network reconfiguration is to minimize the outage risk. The effects of weather condition in evaluating the outage risk are considered. Finally, simulations on the 33-node test system validate the proposed method.
