CWS PROBLEM: 20 MARKS

1. A distribution system and its data is as given below. Calculate the total revenue loss of the
system, considering momentary outages, if the system is (i) unprotected (ii) protected with
Recloser in F2, Sectionalizing switch in F3 and Fuse-blow fuse in F4 and Fuse-save fuse in F5.

All the components are 100 % reliable. The mean values of failure rates and repair time for F1,
F2 and F3 are 0.1 failure/yr and 4 hrs., respectively. For F4 and F5, these values are 0.15 f/yr and
5 hr., respectively. The isolation time is 30 mins.

The mean values of load at L1, L2, L3, L4 and L5 are 2000 kW, 1500 kW, 1200 kW, 1000 kW and
800 kW, respectively. The standard deviation for these values is 10%, and they follow the
normal distribution. USE MONTE-CARLO SIMULATION WITH 5,000 runs. Plot the p.d.f.s of ENS,
TIC (sustained), TIC(momentary) and the total revenue loss. MARKS WILL ALSO BE DEPENDENT
ON THE PRESENTATION AND INTERPRETATION OF THE RESULTS. REPORT TO BE TYPED AND PDF

Momentary outage cost curve assuming all loads to be commercial is:
𝑂𝑢𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝐶𝑜𝑠𝑡 = 0.0145𝑡 + 0.0085
t is the outage time in minutes. For momentary outage take the time as 5 min.

For the sustained or permanent outages, the cost curve is:

𝑂𝑢𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑡 = 2.0 ∗ 10 − 4 𝑡^2 + 0.0875 𝑡
