Optimal trade-offs in distribution protection design.

The number, type and location of the protective devices on a distribution feeder have a direct effect on the system reliability. In earlier work, a technique was developed to design a protective system in order to minimize the SAIFI index. This paper extends earlier results by using a goal programmi...
