Optimal distribution network automation considering earth fault events
, Article IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid ; Volume 6, Issue 2 , 2015 , Pages 1010-1018 ; 19493053 (ISSN) ; Safdarian, A ; Lehtonen, M ; Fotuhi Firuzabad, M ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
In the past decade, distribution network operators have been broadly engrossed toward automated distribution networks. The operators acknowledge network automation as an efficient investment toward a better service reliability. This paper aims to provide a new long-term cost/benefit analysis for an optimal level of distribution network automation. In the analysis, reduction in customer outage cost is considered as the benefit of implementing automation systems with capital investment, and annual operation and maintenance costs. In the Finnish regulation model, there is a special incentive based on customer outage cost reduction. As the main contribution of this paper, the impact of earth...

Optimized sectionalizing switch placement strategy in distribution systems
, Article IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery ; Vol. 27, issue. 1 , 2012 , p. 362-370 ; ISSN: 08858977 ; Fotuhi-Firuzabad M ; Parvania, M ; Mosleh, M ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
Automation is acknowledged by distribution utilities as a successful investment strategy to enhance reliability and operation efficiency. However, practical approaches that can handle the complex decision-making process faced by decision makers to justify the long-term financial effects of distribution automation have remained scarce. An automated and remote-controlled sectionalizing switch play a fundamental role in an automated distribution network. This paper introduces a new optimization approach for distribution automation in terms of automated and remotely controlled sectionalizing switch placement. Mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) is utilized to model the problem. The proposed...
