Abstract: In this paper a simple and an efficient technique for determining the size(s) and site(s) for Distributed Generation systems in electrical distribution systems is presented for power loss saving and voltage profile improvement, giving suitable weighing factors to each one of the considered objectives. For this purpose a method of analytic has been developed and used, which is based on change in real and reactive parts in the branch currents caused by the DG located, and is tested on a 69-bus electrical network. Obtained results shows best loss reduction as well as voltage profile enhancement of the network under consideration. Among various power factors assumed, the operation of Distributed Generation corresponding to load power factor can enhances the system performance greatly, compared to that at unity power factor.
