Description
Summary:An advanced distribution management system (ADMS) is a software platform that supports grid management and decision support applications to address the growing operational challenges faced by power distribution systems to ensure reliable, resilient, and economic operations. In this paper, a fault location, isolation, and restoration (FLISR) application is developed and integrated with an open-source standards-based platform for ADMS application development viz. GridAPPS-D, developed by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL). Also, a new distribution system restoration (DSR) algorithm, an integral part of the FLISR application, is proposed that utilizes backup feeders and distributed generators (along with intentional islanding features) to restore critical loads. The proposed application is developed in python and is tested on a modified IEEE 8500-node test system using the GridAPPS-D platform. The successful deployment of the FLISR application on the GridAPPS-D platform provides a proof-of-concept for the adoption of new and advanced ADMS applications to support future power distribution systems.
