Abstract :
This paper describes the mathematical development of an optimal power flow for radial distribution systems of electric energy. The aim of the optimization process is to determine optimum size and location of capacitor banks in primary feeders, looking to minimize costs with peak power losses, energy losses and bank´s installation
