Abstract :
In this paper, a heuristic method of on line meter placement is presented. The approach can be used to accurately find the on line meter placements candidates in short time and optimum modification. The method has two-stage. In the first stage, proper meter placements are selected by a proposed algorithm. In the second stage, the best online meter placement is determined after assessing the proper placements. The proposed method consider two operation stages of online meters; single and combined meters which can measure one path power and simultaneously several path powers, respectively. Finally, the results are applied on a feeder in Iran distribution network for verification proposes.
