Abstract—This paper dealt with fault location for distribution networks based on Electromagnetism-like Mechanism Algorithm. Considering that the fault location based on EM is actually constraint optimization with 0-1 discrete constraint often falling into the local optimum, an improved EM algorithm is proposed by combining EM with genetic algorithm. Furthermore, it is employed to perform fault location for distribution networks with multiple power sources. The distribution network is divided into several parts with the positive direction and the mathematical model for fault location is built. The simulation results show that the proposed approach has satisfactory accuracy and availability.
