Abstract
Distribution system is very essential to load centre or service mains. This is because it is the final section of electric power system (EPS) to supply the consumers. Once this section is compromised, low voltage consumers will be denied of a reliable supply of electricity. One way to make supply to low voltage consumers reliable is by bringing generation close to them through distributed generators. However, location of distributed generator is very important with respect to the entire EPS security. In this study, power network structural topology (PNST) is proposed to optimally locate distributed generator within distribution system which results in minimal loss as well as maintaining voltage profile within constraint limits. 5- bus IEEE test system was used as case study to show the feasibility of the proposed method. Results obtained for both test systems were validated through the results from power world simulation tool.
