Minimizing total system failure could improve the reliability of power network in order to
optimize power system operation. In this way, reliability analysis has been proposed by …

Failure rate of a system component is usually assumed to be constant in conventional
reliability evaluation of power systems. It has been realised from the real-time operation that …

Reliability of a power distribution system is defined as the ability to deliver uninterrupted
service to customer. Distribution system reliability indices can be presented in many ways to …

Reliability evaluation relates to the impact of faults on customer outage frequency and time.
Thus, studying the process of fault isolation and supply restoration is critical in reliability …

This paper presents an analytical technique for evaluating the reliability of a distribution
system, including distributed generation. Unlike the large-scale generation of the …

A fast reliability calculation method based on the fault incidence matrix (FIM) for the complex
distribution system is proposed in this paper. First, the M-segment-N-tie-switch (MSNT) …

Assessment of customer power supply reliability is an important part of distribution system
operation and planning. Monte Carlo simulations can be used to find the statistical …

Traditional reliability evaluation theory, which reflects long-term average reliability level of
power systems in the typical operating mode, ignores the impact of real-time operating …

This book contains a collection of reprints concerning applied reliability assessment in
electric power systems. It includes information about: general capacity assessment; …

Analytical methods for evaluating the reliability of simple and radial distribution networks
have been well established. Since these analytical methods cannot consider post-fault load …
