Optimal multi-objective reconfiguration and capacitor placement of distribution systems with the Hybrid Big Bang–Big Crunch algorithm in the fuzzy framework

Network reconfiguration and capacitor placement are useful options applied to reduce power losses and to keep voltage profiles within permissible limits in distribution systems. This study presents an efficient algorithm for optimization of balanced and unbalanced radial distribution systems by a ne...
