This work presents a case study on technology assessment for power quality devices. A system compatibility test protocol for power quality mitigation devices was developed in order to evaluate the functionality of three-phase ...

Problems in power distribution system reconfiguration (PDSR), such as service restoration, power loss reduction, and expansion planning, are usually formulated as complex multi-objective and multi-constrained optimization ...

Optimized allocation and/or reallocation of control and protective devices in distribution networks allow for better operation and improved system reliability indices. Control devices (used to reconfigure the feeders) are ...

This paper presents a mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) model for the optimal restoration/maintenance switching sequence of unbalanced three-phase electrical distribution systems. Once the protection coordination ...

This paper presents a comprehensive mathematical model to solve the restoration problem in balanced radial distribution systems. The restoration problem, originally modeled as mixed integer nonlinear programming, is ...

This paper deals with the design and analysis of a Dynamic Voltage Restorer output voltage control. Such control is based on a multiloop strategy, with an inner current PID regulator and an outer P+Resonant voltage controller. ...
