IMPROVING VOLTAGE PROFILE AND REDUCING LOSS IN POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM CONSIDERING DISTRIBUTED GENERATIONS AND CAPACITOR BANKS

Power losses and voltage drop are always major concerns to electricity utility. Study about the methods to reduce power loss and improve voltage profile has been carried for many years. This paper presents a method for the optimal sitting and sizing of Element in a global distribution system for improving voltage profile and reducing loss in network Genetic Algorithm (GA) was used as the solving tool, which referring two determined aim; the problem is defined and objective function is introduced. Considering to fitness values sensitivity in genetic algorithm process, there is needed to apply load flow for decision-making. Load flow algorithm is combined appropriately with GA, till access to acceptable results of this operation
