Analysis Reliability of Distribution Network Interconnected with Distributed Generation

Abstract

The distribution network is the part of the electric power system located closest to the customer and has the highest operating failure rate. Distributed Generation (DG) with an interconnected distribution network impacts the distribution network's reliability level. This research analyzes the distribution network's reliability interconnected with the Distributed generation before and after DG interconnection using the section technique method. The results showed a change in blackout time of 40.67% after the PM.6 Photo feeder was connected to DG with a fixed blackout frequency.
