Development of an Emergency Restoration Process Simulator of Electric Power Distribution Equipments after a Disaster

Abstract

We are developing a tool which can simulate the emergency restoration process of electric power distribution facilities in order to examine the methods to speed-up the process.
This report is aiming following two objectives; 1)describing an overview of the tool “restoration simulator” that simulates the emergency restoration process of the distribution facilities after a disaster, 2)evaluating effectiveness of various restoration methods to speed-up the restoration process using the tool.
