This work focuses on the study of distribution supply quality using an indirect Monte Carlo simulation approach. A detailed model to simulate the stochastic behaviour of an electric distribution system is built: the components have both faulty and operational states, and the possibility of restoration is also accounted for. Several simulations of the stochastic behaviour of the distribution system are performed.
This strategy allows for the estimation of some performance indices (namely, number and duration of permanent, temporary and transient interruptions).
The behaviour of a test grid is investigated, with particular reference to neutral grounding schemes (ungrounded neutral, resonant grounded neutral) and network automation. The final aim is to show a possible application of the proposed model to the evaluation of different solutions in the light of the regulatory framework currently applied on the Italian system for continuity of supply.
