In this study, the effect of distribution automation on radial distribution circuits during substation failures at peak load is investigated. The ultimate goal is to compare circuit automation to manual operation, where the comparison evaluates planning criteria reliability for customer interruption hours. The results show that distribution automation can improve reliability measurements such as SAIDI, SAIFI and CAIDI. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDistribution AutomationPower System ReliabilitySystem ReconfigurationAutomationCustomer InterruptionsDistribution AutomationManual OperationsPlanning CriteriaPower System ReliabilityRadial DistributionsReliability MeasurementsSystem ReconfigurationReliabilityConference Object10.1109/ICHQP.2018.83789192-s2.0-85049243592
