What is the definition of repair rate in Markov state space analysis?

There is a confusion in defining repair rate. From Richard Brown's book, Power Distribution Reliability, it is said that repair rate is the inverse of repair duration, which is defined as the mean...

It depends on their power rating. For example a STATCOM with 500 Kw/250 Kwh might be between 500 k to a 1000 k usd

Chintan Patel

Rightly said by Mr. Hossein Ali Mohammadpor...

For reconfiguration of distribution network, the overall cost depends on many factors like no. of branches in which switches are provided.

The cost cannot be exactly predicted for system. It may vary for different systems.

Thanks for the question Johanno. I too am looking for a similar answer.

As my Final year project I am trying to solve the problem of Voltage Unbalance in a LV that arises because of small Scale PV and one of the solutions I am proposing involves DSTATCOM and another is DG(Distributed Generation) or ESS(Energy Storage System - Large Batteries) and would love some help in calculating the cost for all of these.

The client for my final year project, a distributor in Victoria, Australia is going to give me smart meter data from 8-200 customers and the client would like to know the size and cost of an ESS to get Voltage unbalance in an acceptable range. Would really appreciate some help.

I know this website does not work like a forum but I thought the question is very similar and I am already facing problem with not getting my questions answered as not many people are viewing my questions at this very moment so I though I would post it here for maximum viewing.

Dear friend

please check the follow reference:
