A New Method for Placement of DG Units in Distribution Networks H.Hedayati‚ S.A.Nabaviniaki‚ Senior Member‚ IEEE‚ and A.Akbarimajd Abstract-- In this paper a new method for placement of DG (distributed generation) units in distribution networks has been presented. This method is based on two factors: analysis of power flow continuation and determination of the most sensitive voltage buses to collapse voltage. This method has been executed on a typical 34-Bus test system. Efficiency of proposed
