The distribution simulators like Open DSS,GridLab-D,CYMDIST are available for analysis of distribution network and also some MATLAB based platforms like MATPOWER and PSAT are there in which analysis of a network can be performed.So I want to know which of these software/platforms can be used to perform distribution automation strategies like network reconfiguration ?
Hi Ishan,
If you already have the experience of using OpenDSS or if you want to do other analysis in addition to reconfiguration, I suggest OpenDSS. Since Open DSS has many other program routines useful for distribution network analysis.
Or if you want to develop adavanced routines yourself, Matpower is good. Since Matpower has excellent data structure which can be extended to any other analysis.
Hope this helps....
