Abstract

This paper presents an approach that determines the optimal size and location of capacitor in radial distribution system for improvement of voltage profile and reduce loss. Capacitor sizing and siting are done by particle swarm optimization technique. Particle swarm optimization offer the important information about the sequence of potential node for siting of capacitor. Particle swarm optimization is well applied and found to be very effective in radial distribution systems. The proposed method is tested for 33 bus distribution system.
