Abstract
Distribution systems is consist of network in physical and radial in electrical aspect. Therefore radial operation is realized by changing the status of sectionalizing switches, and is usually done for loss reduction in the system. In this paper, we propose a optimal method for distribution systems reconfiguration. Specifically we use genetic algorithm method to solve distribution systems reconfiguration for loss minimization problem. A genetic algorithm(GA) is set up, in which some improvements are made on string coding, fitness function and mutation pattern. As a result, premature convergence is avoided.
