Abstract :
This paper presents a new algorithm for optimal placement of monitors in a large transmission network in order to assess voltage sags. An integer programming-based algorithm using fuzzy system is proposed for choosing the location of power quality meters. Optimization is performed by using genetic algorithm (GA). In order to show the effectiveness of proposed method, the algorithm is tested on a large transmission network (IEEE 118 bus model). Also a comparison with previous researches in this field is given.
