Abstract :
The planning and the design of the electrical supply system are everyday tasks for engineers in the electric utilities. The goal of power distribution system planning is to satisfy the growing and changing system load demand during the planning period and within operational constraints, with minimal costs. This paper presents Computer Aided Design of Distribution Network application (CADDiN) based on geographic information system (GIS) and genetic algorithms (GA). The application has shown success in solving the distribution system planning problem of optimization of loop and link structured urban distribution networks
