文摘

A novel hybrid HS-PABC algorithm has been proposed by integrating PSO embedded ABC algorithm (PABC) with Harmony search (HS) algorithm to enhance the HS algorithm performance. Integrated approach of optimal network reconfiguration problem along with DG units and shunt capacitors compensation in radial distribution network using the proposed hybrid HS-PABC algorithm. DG unit with real and reactive power injection capability is considered. 69 and 118 node RDN is used for validation.
