Abstract: This paper presents a survey of recent development in Fault Localisation
and Service Restoration (FLSR) following electrical disturbance in Power Distribution
Systems (PDS) based on distributed approaches. Distributed approaches have been
found to fit well in the distribution systems as they have more than one decisionmaking
component, and data processing can be done in parallel in individual units
that makes it faster and requires less processing capabilities centrally. Recently
reported distributed approaches have been studied and analysed. With evergrowing
integration of the renewable distributed generation (DG) into the distribution
systems, it has been realised that, the uncertainty nature of both load demand
and DG need to be considered in the service restoration problems for improved
efficiency. Consideration of uncertainty nature of the renewable generation and
load demands in the distributed FLSR result into the increased restored customers
as well as avoiding overloading and underloading after restoration. The paper starts
with a general overview of the Multi Agent Systems (MAS) as the distributed control
approach and approaches for forecasting load demand and DG power and then
discusses different approaches used for FLSR in PDS by showing their strengths and
limitations. The review is concluded by giving future research directions.
