Abstract

Evaluation of the distribution network automation systems is a complex task due to it containing various criteria. So, this evaluation is an multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. We used the VIKOR method to rank the alternatives. The VIKOR method is integrated with the plithogenic set to deal with uncertainty information in the evaluation distribution network automation system. Three experts are invited to evaluate the criteria and alternatives. An application with eight criteria and 12 alternatives is collected to select the highest importance criterion and highest score alternatives. The results show the System Reliability and Stability criterion has the highest importance and the User Interface and Control Systems criterion has the lowest importance. We performed sensitivity analysis with ten cases to show the different rank of alternatives. The results show the proposed method is stable in different cases.
