The selection process of conductor size in radial distribution network is very essential issue
to improve the performance of the network. The true conductor size selection leads to less …

This paper presents a mixed-integer linear programming model to solve the conductor size
selection and reconductoring problem in radial distribution systems. In the proposed model …

Power distribution systems (PDS) comprise essential electrical components and
infrastructure that facilitate the delivery of electrical energy from a power transmission …

This article addresses the problem of the optimal selection of conductors in asymmetric three-
phase distribution networks from a combinatorial optimization perspective, where the …

Power distribution networks are transitioning from passive towards active networks
considering the incorporation of distributed generation. Traditional energy networks require …

The increasing cost of electricity generation and the limitations of fossil fuel resources made
it necessary to optimize the design and operation of distribution systems to guarantee the …

Conductor size selection (CSS) is critical for the optimal design and operation of distribution
networks. CSS, like other aspects of network planning, has become increasingly …

In this paper a mixed-integer non-linear programming formulation for optimal conductor
selection in radial distribution networks is proposed. The objective function in this problem …

With the increasing adoption of distributed energy resources (DERs) such as wind and solar
photovoltaics (PV), many distribution networks have changed from passive to active. In turn …

Power distribution systems (PDS) are the infrastructure and equipment used to distribute
electricity from the transmission system to end-users, such as homes and businesses. PDS …
