The adoption of optimal network reconfiguration (ONR) tools is crucial in enhancing the operational efficiency, security and reliability of smart distribution grids, since ONR can be used to ensure grid integrity and quality of supply among end-users. However, in order to improve ONR applicability in a SCADA/DMS framework, the actual practices in fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) must be taken into account. For this reason, this paper proposes a ONR formulation, based on Mixed-Integer Linear Programming, aimed at optimizing quality of supply indicators, while respecting connectivity and radiality constraints, together with other constraints on selectivity and coordination of protection devices. In order to validate its feasibility in a realistic scenario, the proposed approach has been tested on the model of an actual primary distribution grid which supplies energy to about 60,000 inhabitants and 30,000 customers in the South of Italy.

Abstract
The adoption of optimal network reconfiguration (ONR) tools is crucial in enhancing the operational efficiency, security and reliability of smart distribution grids, since ONR can be used to ensure grid integrity and quality of supply among end-users. However, in order to improve ONR applicability in a SCADA/DMS framework, the actual practices in fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) must be taken into account. For this reason, this paper proposes a ONR formulation, based on Mixed-Integer Linear Programming, aimed at optimizing quality of supply indicators, while respecting connectivity and radiality constraints, together with other constraints on selectivity and coordination of protection devices. In order to validate its feasibility in a realistic scenario, the proposed approach has been tested on the model of an actual primary distribution grid which supplies energy to about 60,000 inhabitants and 30,000 customers in the South of Italy.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
