摘要

The total supply capability (TSC) is an important index for assessing the reliability of a distribution power system. In this paper, two models to evaluate the TSC are established. In the first, the TSC is acquired with the conditions that all load outages can be restored via network reconfiguration with transformers' N-1 contingencies, i.e., that all constraints related to branch thermal ratings and bus-voltage limits can be satisfied following restoration for each N-1 contingency. The second model, which is revision of the first, considers the daily load curves for different classes of customers, e.g., residential, commercial and industrial. Both models can be formulated as mixed integer problems with second-order cone programming (MISOCP), which can be solved using commercially available optimization software. Two test systems are used to demonstrate the applicability of the presented models. Numerical results show that the presented model is more accurate than the previously published models. This proposed analytical approach can be applied in a range of network planning studies, e.g., for selecting appropriate ratings of transformers, or for optimal locating of circuit breakers and distributed energy resources.
