This article proposes a new approach based on a bio-inspired Cuckoo Search Algorithm
(CSA) that can significantly envisage with several issues for optimal allocation of distribution …

This article presents frequency regulation of an interconnected three-area power system
(Thermal+ Wind+ Hydro). Fractional Order PID (FOPID) and Proportional-Integral-Derivative …

Due to the significant number of distributed generators in the electric power system,
islanding detection requirements are becoming an increasingly prominent aspect of the …

The emergence of microgrids arises from the growing integration of Renewable Energy
Resources (RES) and Energy Storage Systems (ESSs) into Distribution Networks (DNs) …

To ensure the reliability and flexibility of direct current (dc) system, direct current circuit
breakers (DCCBs) are in urgent demand. Compared with solid-state and hybrid DCCBs …

Electricity theft is a great trouble for power companies. As the means of tampering with smart
meters continue to increase, the electricity theft behaviours become more diversified and …

The integration of phasor measurement units (PMUs) greatly improves the operation
monitoring level of distribution networks. However, high sampling rates in PMUs generate …

This article proposes a novel fault-localization method that is based on the nonintrusive fault-
monitoring (NIFM) techniques in high-voltage/extra-high-voltage (HV/EHV) power …

A power system suffers from unexpected various faults, which needs smart devices for
accurate estimates of fault detection, classification and direction discrimination to provide …

Abstract Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) allows dynamic control
capabilities of transmitted power. Unfortunately, inserting SSSC in transmission lines (TLs) …
