This paper proposes a procedure based on a multi-phase seeker optimization algorithm (MSOA) for optimizing the commitment of transmission system. The under consideration problem is formulated with the aid of AC-based security constrained optimal power flow (SC-OPF) considering system constraints. The target is to detect transmission lines commitment schedule that reduces system production costs and enables sufficient reserve levels from both generation and transmission. The methodology is illustrated through several computational tests on IEEE 57 and IEEE 118 bus test systems to confirm the previous objectives. It is proven that numerical results based on the use the AC model demonstrate that the calculation time is short enough and the cost savings are reasonably better than DC power flow model. In addition, all transmission lines are preserved within their permissible boundaries and the voltage deviation is maintained at the least levels.
