This paper presents the design and development of a scaled down physical model for power Distribution Automation (DA) system simulation. The developed DA system simulator is useful in providing hands-on experience to utility engineers/managers to familiarise themselves with the DA system and gain confidence in managing the power distribution system from the computer aided distribution control centre. The distribution automation system simulator can be effectively used to carry out further research work in this area. This also helps undergraduate and graduate students to understand power distribution automation technology in the laboratory environment.

Power Failure in the power system is mainly due to the overloading. The possible damage to the area is losing a power. The Arduino Uno based load control system is a device which automatically control overload on generator by controlling power and cut-off supply whenever consumers exceeds the amount of power supplied for peak period. This is achieved by Arduino Uno, which detect overload and simultaneously cut-off the supply for the period of generator overloading. In this paper system can be automated into two stages are monitoring function and controlling function. In Monitoring function it has to record the meter reading at different location in the system, for normal as well as overload condition which is required for system planning. Distribution Supervisory control and Data Acquisition System (DSCADA) performs some of these monitoring function and controlling function about switching operation that is controlling of relay circuit breaker. The function Impacts on Consumer as well as reliability. The research work to be aimed at developing local full scale distribution automation system which can be control from secondary distribution substation to the consumer end. Power distribution automation expected for the broad areas. The project aimed at uninterrupted power supply for loyal energy consumer by implementation of this the problem of interruption off power supply due to energy misusing consumer can be avoided. This system provides the reliable operation at consumer end.

C5.0 Decision Tree

Electricity fraud in billing are the primary concerns for Distribution System Operators (DSO). It is estimated that billions of dollars are wasted annually due to these illegal activities. DSOs around the world, especially in underdeveloped countries, still utilize conventional time consuming and inefficient methods for Non-Technical Loss (NTL) detection. This research work attempts to solve the mentioned problem by developing an efficient energy theft detection model in order to identify the fraudster customers in a power distribution system. The key motivation for the present study is to assist the DSOs in their fight against energy theft. The proposed computational model initially utilizes a set of distinct features extracted from the monthly consumers’ consumption data, obtained from Multan Electric Power Company (MEPCO) Pakistan, to segregate the honest and the fraudulent customers. The Pearson’s chi-square feature selection algorithm is adopted to select the most relevant features among the extracted ones. Finally, the Boosted C5.0 Decision Tree (DT) algorithm is used to classify the honest and the fraudster consumers based on the outcomes of the selected features. To validate the superiority of the proposed NTL detection approach, its performance is matched with that of few state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms (one of most exciting recent technologies in Artificial Intelligence), like Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Extreme Gradient Bossting (XGBoost). The proposed NTL detection method provides an accuracy of 94.6%, Sensitivity of 78.1%, Specificity of 98.2%, F1 score 84.9% and Precision of 93.2% which are significantly higher than that of the same for the above-mentioned algorithms.

This paper proposes an agent based integration strategy for software elements at the Distribution Control Centre (DCC). The proposed agent-based software integration enables to "plug-and-play" new software applications developed by any vendor or developer with no or minimal changes in the existing software system at DCC. Consequently, it permits the development of the distribution automation system in a phased manner by different vendors. The strategy has been successfully implemented and tested in an actual 10 MVA, 33 kV distribution system to validate its efficacy.

Distribution system optimization is one of the essential undertaking should be tended to for productive power system operation. A large number of the advancement methodologies were completed at distribution level, for example, ideal reconfiguration, ideal situation of capacitors and Distributed Generators, and additionally the blend of all. This research work proposes distribution system reconfiguration algorithm as it sidestep the utilization of outer types of equipments for Radial Distribution System (RDS) performance enhancement. This paper addresses optimal reconfiguration of distribution system by hybrid Fuzzy-Flower Pollination Algorithm (FFPA). This strategy takes the advantage of FPA and fuzzy for execution improvement. FPA handles the compelling optimization process. The combination of heuristic fuzzy guarantees the synchronous treatment of constraints alongside the primary goal of the optimization issue. The main objective of this work is to actualize an algorithm for the use of distribution system reconfiguration under normal and abnormal working condition. The adequacy of the calculation is approved through actualizing into IEEE 33 bus RDS and 83 bus Taiwan Power Distribution Company (TPDC) system under typical working conditions. Further, the proposed algorithm is actualized to distribution system workstation which is a scale down prototype of power distribution system.

This study presents the analysis of energy revenue and electrical power losses in distribution network, aimed to determine the energy losses on power distribution system. The 11kV power transmission line at Ujokuen community feeding to Benson Idahosa University was investigated. The following data were obtained as follow: energy delivered, energy billing, total cash amount, billed collected and correspond percentage. From the research work various technical power losses associated with power distribution network were determined and their effect on energy delivered and energy billing and corresponding difference under the area of investigation. It was observed that energy delivered is not constant or linear for the year 2013. The comparison of energy delivered and energy billed for various years were determined. It was observed that there is decreased in energy delivered and energy billed from 2013 to 2015 and the system witnessed a slightly increase of energy delivered and energy billed from 2016 to 2018. The energy level differentials are due to copper losses, energy theft and core loss.
