2.2.1. Objective Functions
2.2.2. Network Reconfiguration Constraints
- (a)
- Power balance: In all distribution networks, the power supply must be equal to the sum of the load demand and power loss.Psubstation = Ploss + Pload
- (b)
- Voltage constraint: The voltage magnitude Vbus at each bus should stay within specific limits during the operation of the system.Vmin < Vbus < Vmax
- (c)
- Feeder capacity limits: After reconfiguration, all power lines must be operating within their thermal limits:
- (d)
- The radiality constraint: The distribution systems must stay radial during operation. The system has to remain radially operated after reconfiguration. Therefore, at least one switch in each of the identified loops has to be opened.
2.2.3. Protection Constraints
- (a)
- The Overload Factor (OLF) limit: at the normal operating time of the distribution network, if the branch current is higher than the pick-up current of the relay or operating current of the fuse, the protective device must immediately isolate the coverage area to minimize damage to the distribution equipment. The Overload Factor (OLF) limit is formulated in Equation (7).OLF × Ibr < Ip
- (b)
- Protective device sensitivity to the minimum fault current: In the optimal service restoration, the restored networks’ protective devices have to sense the fault currents and isolate the fault section of the distribution networks. This constraint will avoid unwanted operation of protective devices and ensure the protection coverage of the distribution network. Thus, the rating of the protective devices should be below the minimum fault current values and it is given in Equation (8) [16].
