  • Abstract
    Distribution automation is being adopted by several utilities to improve their operation. The importance of efficient load shedding algorithms in automated distribution systems has been known for some time. Yet there has been very little work in this area. The paper formulates this problem as a simple graph search problem. A simple and effective algorithm has been developed to determine the loads to be shed in order to overcome the abnormal operating conditions in the system.
