  • Abstract
    This paper presents the basic features of a sequential analytical Monte Carlo approach for reliability evaluation of distribution systems. The document includes a description of the procedure, implemented in an open environment in which OpenDSS is driven from MATLAB, and some simulation results derived from the analysis of an overhead distribution test system.
