Abstract:
The planning of medium voltage power systems has been so far carried out in a limited way. Apart from the purely technical aspects, other issues as relevant as the task of planning must be identified and defined. The methods currently available are based solely on mathematical principles and computational techniques applied to the schematic representation of power systems. The organization of the planning process proposed here stems from a cognitive approach that associates intrinsic knowledge with planning activities and other relevant aspects. A description of the organization of the planning process is preliminary presented so that the other aspects inherent to this activity are identified. From a systemic perspective, the re-organization of the planning process is proposed taking its efficacy into account. Finally, the reorganization of the planning process is evaluated so that its properties are identified along with its efficiency. Undoubtedly, the planning of medium voltage power systems requires improvement. The optimization of this process transcends classical and purely technical problems with power systems, which leads us to propose a reorganization of the planning process, focusing on knowledge management (KM) as the main paradigm of investigation.
