Abstract:This paper proposes a methodology for vegetation management in overhead distribution networks that reduces costs related to tree trimming and penalties due to transgression in targets for SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index). Another objective of this paper is to compare Surrogate Models, based on Lognormal and Pearson distributions, with the Monte Carlo Method (MCM) to estimate the SAIDI probability distribution. In addition, penalties were estimated considering voltage restrictions and circuit … Show more
