Fault section isolation and service restoration are very important for function of DAS. In Japan, a progressive protection method is used for the line to ground fault section isolation and service restoration. But the progressive protection method has a drawback that the customer will experience outage time and that the rate in use of the feeder is not over 50%. This paper presents a new Service Restoration Algorithm which is for the line to ground fault section isolation and service restoration method for a ungrounded distribution system. If the proposed algorithm is used, the rate in use of the feeder can improve than before because a distribution system can change multi connection of feeder and the customer's outage time can be reduced. The proposed algorithm has been successfully tested in a distribution system.

This paper presents a restoration method by using Dijkstra algorithm for outage restoration problems in distribution system that considering load capacity constraints and operation constraints. Restoration problem in distribution system is difficult to solve problem in a short times, because of a distribution system that supplies power for customers combined with many tie-line switches and sectionalizing switches and have to satisfy plenty of operation conditions. Therefore, this paper applied Dijkstra algorithm which is satisfy radial operation conditions in distribution system. This proposed method used Kruskal algorithm include to Dijkstra algorithm Therefore, proposed method is restored to a outage sections in a short times and just then to satisfied with a operation conditions in distribution system. A 26-bus, 31-branch model system is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Computerized to techniques have been applied to outage call processing system for rapid restoration of power to customers. This paper presents computer aided outage call processing system called '123' system, which has been in operation since 1987. And, also describes its origins, design conception to be considered and its operation effects. From a positive point of view, it shows the functions needs to be added and some problems to be improved. Additionally, it describes the integrated system which has functions of detecting distribution failure, locating failure position by logical computer processing, and although ADS (Automatic Distribution System) has yet to be built up, the primary purpose of the system is to improve service to the customer by means of rapid restoration of electricity outage.

This paper proposes an autonomous fault determination, fault zone isolation and fault restoration strategy based on the ethernet communication as a new attempt to solve the problem the of the existing central control method. In proposed method, The FRTU(Feeder Remote Terminal Unit)s on the feeder determines autonomously where the faulted zone is by exchanging the voltage and current information with neighbor FRTUs based on the network communication, and then separates the faulted zone in an nil-voltage status to make the protective device to reclose successively. In particular, the minimization of outage time and relational load balancing is archived by each interconnection switch which determines autonomously the load zone to be allocated among those zones after the sound outage zones was separated individually. Finally, to show effectiveness of the proposed fault restoration strategy, the several fault cases are simulated for the test distribution system, and the load balancing index of the proposed solution is compared with all of feasible solutions.

Severe natural disasters and man-made attacks such as terrorism are causing unprecedented disruptions in power systems. Due to rapid climate change and the aging of energy infrastructure, both the frequency of failure and the level of damage are expected to increase. Resilience is a concept proposed to respond to extreme disaster events that have a low probability of occurrence but cause enormous damage and is defined as the ability of a system to recover to its original function after a disaster. Resilience is a comprehensive indicator that can include system performance before and after a disaster and focuses on preparing for all possible disaster scenarios and having quick and efficient recovery actions after an incident. Various studies have been conducted to evaluate resilience, but studies on economic damage considering the duration of a power outage are scarce. In this study, we propose an optimal algorithm that can identify failures after an extreme disaster and restore the load on the distribution system through emergency distributed power generation input and system reconfiguration. After that, the cost of power outage damage is analyzed by applying VoLL and CDF according to each restoration strategy.

When load areas on a feeder are deenergized due to faults and scheduled outage, operators need to identify neighboring feeders, try to restore customers and minimize out-of-service areas. These cases include knowledge of system states and various constraints such as voltage drop. This paper concerns the load transfer in fault restoration and scheduled outage. Also, the operating constraints such as line current capacity, relay trip current, transformer capacity, voltage drop and line loss are considered. This expert system can propose the optimal load transfer method by analyzing the system state and considering the constraints.

KEPRI has completed to develop KP-ROTS Ver 1.1 and applied to 12 power transmission district offices and Je-ju branch office in KEPCO, which was updated from the exiting power restoration training simulator related to power restoration project. This program has functions such as black-start line analysis for all network blackout, restoration training on wide blackout and simple study on outage plans. KEPCO expects that local operators will train well for restoration procedures against wide blackout by using KP-ROTS.

Outage areas can be transferred to adjacent feeders to restore power supply in case of the fault on the distribution system. Feeders in the small island or mountain area may not have backup feeders due to the low density of load. In this weakly meshed open loop system, BESS can be used as a backup feeder to improve reliability of power supply. This paper proposes a new network reconfiguration method for BESS based service restoration. Fuzzy decision making technique is adopted to deal with fuzziness of service restoration planning rules. Case studies using KEPCO real distribution system have been performed to verify feasibility of the proposed method.

One of the main jobs of the operators is to make it sure to have a service continuity in a fault situation. This paper proposes a restoration index which indicates the restoration capability of the feeder in case of a fault. A necessary and sufficient condition for a feeder to have 100% restoration of the outage is also described.

This paper proposes a new fault restoration method which adopts the recloser as top agent to release the problems of the data concentration and fault processing delay of the existing DAS(distribution Automation System) under the ubiquitous distribution system. In proposed method, top agent collects the data based on the multi-casting communication with the tie switches of the interconnection point, and then selects a closed switch(tie switch) to transfer the sound outage load to other feeders based on the heuristic search strategy step by step until the load transfer work is finished. Here, a new heuristic rule is developed which can guarantee the relational load balancing and line loss from the collected voltage data. Finally, the several faults are simulated for typical multi-section and multi-interconnection distribution system to prove the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, in particular, for each simulation cases, the load balancing index and line loss index of the obtained solution from the proposed method is compared with those of all of feasible solutions.
