In This paper, Use a Linear Power Flow (LPF) based on a Voltage-Dependent Load Model Formulation to Solve the Problem of Network Reconfiguration Considering Distributed Generation Placement. A Mixed Integer Linear programing (MILP) Optimization Problem Is Thus Formed Which Can Determine the DG Location In Addition To the Optimum Radial Topology. To Illustrate The Superiority Of The Method We Have Compared The Proposed Method With A Number Of Heuristic Algorithms. The Benefit Of The Proposed Method Is Its Low Computational Burden As Well As Its Simplicity Of Implementation
