Optimal relay coordination for power system connected to distribution generators using particle swarm optimization

The electrical system consists of a group of parts that together form an integrated system that can be relied upon in providing electrical energy to the consumer. Due to the expansion of the electrical network, the inability to install huge generating stations in different areas, and electrical loss...
