Résumé: Reliability is a key aspect of power system design and planning. In this research a reliability analysis algorithm for radial operated (with respect to substation), reconfigurable, electrical distribution systems. The algorithm takes into account equipement power handling contraints. Linked lists of segments are employed in obtaining the rapid convergence. The implementation is effected by using the MATLAB package. The application of distributed generators for electrical distribution systems is a new technology. The placement of distributed generation and its effects on reliability for static load models. Reliability index is proposed. The proposed index makes easier to locate areas where reliability needs to be improved. The usefulness of this index is demonstrated with numerical examples.
