To address the issues that existing configurations for hierarchical protection location selection in distribution networks lack a quantitative model
rely heavily on expert experience
and have insufficient quantitative evaluation of configuration rationality
a multi-objective optimization method for hierarchical protection location selection is proposed to meet the multi-dimensional requirements. By quantifying constraints such as the coordination relationships between protection devices
the number of protection configurations
and the installation locations of protection on main feeders
an optimization model is established with the objectives of minimizing protection operation time
fault-induced load loss
and the total investment cost of protection equipment. An improved bare-bones multi-objective particle swarm optimization (BB-MOPSO) algorithm is employed to solve the model and obtain the Pareto-optimal solution set. The final configuration scheme is then selected from this set by integrating the K-means clustering algorithm
min-max normalization
and the linear desirability function. Simulation results based on an IEEE 33-node distribution network model in MATLAB demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively enhance the speed and selectivity of protection operation
thereby improving both the security and economy of distribution network planning.
