Abstract
This paper addresses a comparative study of radial topologies and the impact of the topology with the integration of PV for a rural village considering the shortest line and load balancing improvement. This research paper aims to develop and compare the AC low voltage (LVAC) topology with different developed algorithms. The shortest path (SP) algorithm is developed to search for minimizing the conductor usage in the first step. Two different algorithms, are repeated phase sequence (RPS-ABC) and first fit bin packing (FFBP), which are established in the second step to find out the load balancing in three-phase LVAC topology. Then, the comparative analysis of different methods is investigated considering the energy losses. Next, an impact of integrated photovoltaic (PV) uncertainties in both sitting and sizing into the optimal LVAC topology are performed using the Monte-Carlo (MC) simulation method. In this paper, simulation results obtained confirm the proposed method.
