Reliability diagnosis of distribution system under adverse weather conditions

Abstract

This article seeks to present results of the cluster of weather variables that influence the quality of supply, based on a weather information database, and a electrical company reliability index database. Based on this information a methodology will be presented, which determine the influence of weather conditions on supply reliability levels. This work joins professionals of several areas, who deal with aspects of meteorology, network indexes and reliability indexes, stochastic aspects and statistical analysis.
