Abstract

This paper presents a classification for partitioning algorithms used in secondary voltage control of distribution power networks. Also it presents a comparative study on fifteen different algorithms based on structure dependence, initial conditions, input data types, zones isolation, repeatability, generators distribution, computation effort and fitness score. This wide comparative study has shown that Self Organizing Map algorithm is the closest to the ideal case.
