Abstract

This paper relates to several specific aspects of design and operation of a 'smart' power distribution system. The emphasis is on automation in design, reliability enhancement, operations, and reconfiguration after a disturbance. The use of network incidence or connectivity matrices is shown and examples indicate the potential operational capabilities of a 'smart distribution system'. An algorithm described as a sequential feeder approach is illustrated.
