Abstract In this paper, a proposed algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used to present a simple method for data calibration of reliability indices in electrical power distribution networks. The main feature of the proposed method is its comprehensiveness, since the whole reliability indices can be calibrated using a proper objective function. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the suggested algorithm, calculations are made on the well-known IEEE-RBTS Bus2 test system. The results confirm the simplicity and validation of the proposed method, and verify that by applying the proposed method, the computation speed for data calibration can be reduced as well.

This Paper enlightens the significance of the reliability evaluation for an electrical power distribution network using the analytical technique FMEA. The power distribution system is subject to interruptions frequently as a lot of devices are responsible for its effective operation. All the possible failures of each component are considered and the reliability is evaluated in terms of system reliability indices like SAIFI, SAIDI, ENS, and ASAI. FMEA method observes the failure modes of a procedure and reduces it by ranking over its impacts. In this paper, RBTS bus2 distribution network is used for the analysis. The influences of various feeder reconfigurations are considered and the system reliability indices are obtained. The obtained results show that the reliability of the distribution system is enriched with various feeder reconfigurations. Reliability Evaluation helps to design the future Distribution system and its expansion.

The paper presents the background and results of numerical simulation and experimental research of a system using auctioneering diodes used to distribute the electrical power between two power converters connected with intermediate circuits in parallel, direct connection. Presented non-isolated power distribution system which utilizes blocking diodes placed in DC branches are used in the selected ship's electrical systems, however, they create problems related to control and handling ground faults. Another issue occurring during the operation of this type of systems is increased heat dissipation while diodes switching. Selected problems related to the operation of experimental system have been identified by means of simulation studies and experiments carried out in a 11 kVA laboratory system and the theoretical basis along with results are provided in the article.

System Restoration

Electric Power Distribution System is a complex network of electrical power system. Also, large number of lines on a distribution system experiences regular faults which lead to high value of current. Speedy and precise fault location plays a pivotal role in accelerating system restoration which is a need of modern day. Unlike transmission system which involves a simple connection, distribution system has a very complicated structure thereby making it a herculean task to design the network for computational analysis. In this paper, the authors have simulated IEEE 13- node distribution system using PSCAD which is an unbalanced system and current samples are generated at the substation end. A Fuzzy c-mean (FCM) and statistical based approach has been used. Samples are transformed as clusters by use of FCM and fed to Expectation- Maximization (EM) algorithm for classifying and locating faults in an unbalanced distribution system. Further, it is to be kept in mind that the combination has not been used for the above purpose as per the literature available till date.

The concept of smart grid to transform the old power grid into a smart and intelligent electric power distribution system is, currently, a hot research topic. Smart grid offers the merging of electrical power engineering technologies with network communications. Game theory has featured as an interesting technique, adopted by many researchers, to establish effective smart grid communications. The use of game theory has offered solutions to various decision-making problems, ranging from distributed load management to micro storage management in smart grid. Interestingly, different researchers have different objectives or problem scopes for adopting game theory in smart grid. This chapter explores the game-based approach.
