Abstract

One of the most important aspects of the electro-energetic systems analysis, with practical applications mainly to distribution system reconfiguration and optimization, is the identification of the radial structures that can be extracted from meshed network. Even the enumeration of the possible radial configurations extracted out of a weakly meshed network with given supply points can be a challenging task, due to the specific physical links that do not allow for defining a simple and general method for the radial structure determination. We propose, in this paper, a fast and efficient backtracking algorithm, to enumerate and identify all the possible radial configurations that can be obtained from a given meshed structure of a network. The procedure is illustrated and applied to a 33-node reconfigurable distribution systems widely used in the literature.
