Gravitational Search Algorithm and Selection Approach for Optimal Distribution Network Configuration Based on Daily Photovoltaic and Loading Variation

Table 2

Comparison of the total daily power loss among the four scenarios.

	Scenario 1 (without reconfiguration)	Scenario 2 (with optimal hourly reconfiguration)	Scenario 3 (with proposed method)	Scenario 4 (with optimal daily configuration of 24 demand levels as whole)
GSA and selection approach
Total daily power loss (kW)	4022.30	1996.58	2075.51	2090.78
EP and selection approach
Total daily power loss (kW)	4022.30	2221.52	2334.28	2373.17
