Abstract: Substation location and conductor layout plays a vital role in distribution planning. This paper presents an improved model to optimize the location of the substation and network routing problem. The model was formulated to minimize the feeder routes subject to a set of constraints. The computational results of a devised sample problem indicate that the developed optimization model is adequate for planning of distribution systems. Here in this paper we suggest the optimum location of a distribution substation among various obtained location. The site of the location is chosen based on many factors by the means of TOPSIS analysis, after obtaining the desired location we go for distribution planning by the means of a hybrid model which includes Taguchi and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique of Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) where we take into consideration some aspects of reliability such as miles of conductor, feeder failures!
, customer interruption, maximum interruption, estimated relative cost. The method suggested here firstly determines the priority of these aspects of reliability and then it determines the weight of these factors and ultimately distribution planning has been carried out by Technique of Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). The results of the discussed techniques will lead to lower long range distribution expenses as it will lead to optimum feeder path.
