The integration of renewable energy into the
distribution network leads to the use of electronic components
such as SOP (Soft Open Point). This latest reduces the
overloads and power losses in distribution networks. The SOP
is a power electronic device installed between adjacent feeders
of a distribution network, with the capability to control real
and reactive power flows through its connecting points. The
distribution system operators must propose solutions to solve
the main problems, such as reliability, power loss
minimizations, and the quality of electrical energy. This paper
presents a strategy for distribution network reconfiguration
through using SOP to minimize power losses in the
distribution network. The simulation results demonstrate that
the use of SOP reduces greatly the power losses in the To
examine the validity of the proposed system a distribution
network is chosen using Matlab/Simulink and Power System
Analysis Toolbox (PSAT) distribution network.
