Abstract
A new method is developed for optimal placement of voltage sag meters. It is based on a new optimization problem that includes: network unbalanced conditions; three-phase, two-phase and single-phase feeders; a statistical characterization of the fault impedances, and observability constraints derived from the fault relative location techniques. The main contribution is a new optimization problem formulation to guarantee that the monitoring system would be an advanced management tool in the power distribution. The proposed method is tested in a real 379-node distribution network of a Colombian network operator. Meters optimal configuration is obtained and the results show how a monitoring system may be optimized considering the real features of the network faults in distribution systems
