Abstract

Unbalanced loads on feeders increase power system investment and operating costs. Single-phase lateral loads phase swapping is one of the popular methods to balance such systems. In this paper, six algorithms for phase balancing are studied, including a genetic algorithm, simulated annealing, a greedy algorithm, exhaustive search, backtracking algorithm and a dynamic programming algorithm. The novel dynamic programming algorithm in particular produces optimal solutions for this NP-complete problem efficiently.
