Abstract (EN): This paper deals with the radial distribution system reconfiguration problem in a multi-objective scope, aiming to determine the optimal configuration by means of minimization of active power losses and several reliability indices. A novel way to calculate these indices under a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) approach is provided. Afterwards, an efficient implementation of the e-constraint method using lexicographic optimization is employed to solve the multi-objective optimization problem, which is formulated as a MILP problem. After the Pareto Efficient solution set is generated, a multi-attribute decision making procedure is used, namely the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method, so that a decision maker (DM) can express preferences over the solutions and facilitate the final selection.
