Efficient Capacitor Location in Radial Distribution Networks via Reptile Search Approach
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: A vigorous technique known as the Reptile Search Approach (RSA) is invested in this article, for optimum post and amplitude of parallel capacitance devices for two Radial Distribution Networks (RDN). Primarily, the ultimate appointee nodes for fixing capacitance devices are introduced via Loss Sensitivity Factors (LSF). Subsequently, the developed RSA is exploited to derive the capacity of capacitors and their sites from the gathered nodes. The cost function is launched to diminish the gross losses, and thereafter, grow the gross savings yearly. The found results through the suggested approach are contrasted with others to emphasize their merits. Also, the outcomes are presented to confirm the influence of the introduced approach to minify the losses, and gross charge and promote the net saving and voltage levels.
