Abstract :
The demand for higher quality and reliability of power distribution system, role of distribution system in reducing losses and pollutions have increased requirement for utilization of power electronic devices in distribution systems. LVDC system is one of the newest technologies in the field of distribution networks. In this paper, LVDC system´s economic penetration rate in MV branches is studied for different load densities, types and different influences of distributed generation units in multiple configurations. Simulation results are obtained by using MATLAB software on a hypothetical network.
