Original Abstract

This paper deals with LV mesh network reconfiguration in order to minimize short circuit currents. The reconfiguration rests in switching off selected network elements leading to in-crease of short circuit impedances in LV nodes. For optimal configuration, an algorithm of sequential disconnecting of elements is proposed, based on load flow and short circuit calcu-lations. The reconfiguration procedure is applied to a model of a mesh MV/LV network. Re-duction of short circuit currents in this network is presented, capturing impact of each step of the sequence. Based on the presented results, deploying other measures and further develop-ment of the proposed algorithm are discussed.
