I. INTRODUCTION N distributed monitoring scheme [1], [2], selecting the
number and location of monitors is a critical problem because it is directly related to the efficiency of the
monitoring system. This problem will be called as monitor positioning. It is a matter of course that more monitors will result in more accurate identification results. Ideally, it is best to install monitors at all components but all components can not be monitored for economic reason. There is a tradeoff between the accuracy of results and the economical efficiency [3]. Thus appropriate locations for monitor installation must be carefully selected for maximum efficiency. The followings are arising important issues.
How many monitors are needed? Where are their locations? How can the adequacy of the locations be estimated?
Typically, the number of monitors required is determined or guided by the customer considering the size of their site and economic capability. Therefore it becomes important to decide the location of monitors under the given number of monitors. To decide the locations, some principles for monitor positioning are also needed. Through these principles, monitors can be positioned at proper locations. The last problem can be solved by introducing the concept of topologi-

cal ambiguity. Therefore, in this paper a new algorithm on monitor
positioning is developed. The coverage matrix is constructed and the principles of monitor positioning are suggested. Following these principles, the weighting factors of each component are defined. Finally, this method newly defined ambiguity indices. At the end of this paper, the overall algorithm for monitor positioning is developed. II. TREE REPRESENTATION AND MODIFIED INCIDENCE MATRIX
A. Graph Theory and Incidence Matrices In power system analysis, the graph theory and incidence
matrices have been frequently used for computer simulation. The power system network is represented by a simple graph and converted into the corresponding incidence matrix to get a network matrix e.g. impedance matrix Z or admittance matrix Y [4]. For monitor positioning, these are also useful methodology. Therefore, the graph and corresponding incidence matrices are introduced in this section. Let us first introduce the example power system. This example system will also be used in the proceeding chapters.

This one-line diagram can be converted into Graph, which represents the geometrical interconnection of power system network. In graph, there exist nodes and elements. The lines and other connecting segments are elements and their terminals are nodes [4]. Fig. 2 shows the graph representation of example system.

Fig. 2 Graph representation of example system
A node and an element are incident if the node is a terminal of the element. Following this relation, an incidence matrix can be constructed from the graph. Element-node incidence matrix represents the incidence of elements to nodes. The following matrix is the element-node matrix of Fig. 2. Rows are the elements of the graph and columns represent the nodes of the graph. Matrix dimension is 713 which is equal to the number of elements and nodes of the example system.

It also includes all the information about the topology of the system so that the graph can be constructed from this matrix conversely.

B. Tree Representation
In data structure of computer engineering, a tree consists of a set of nodes and a set of directed edges that connect pairs of nodes [5]. A rooted tree is the tree which has only one root that does not receive information from other nodes. For this reason, rooted tree is suitable for representing the topology of radial distribution power system.
For power quality events happen in the lines or the elements connected to the lines, other components except line are merged with lines. Buses and loads are merged with nearby lines. The merged components become the nodes of rooted tree and are newly numbered in Fig. 3. Equivalent source and transformer are not included in this tree because they are part of external system.

In Fig. 3(a), L1 becomes the root of tree. For L1 is
connected with L2, L3 and L6 in Fig. 3(a), the node L1 is connected with the node L2, L3 and L6 in Fig. 3(b). Other nodes are connected with one another in this way. In rooted tree, there is parent-child relationship between nodes. For example, L1 is the parent of L2, L3 and L6. L3 is the parent of L4 and L5. L4 and L5 are the children of L3. In this way, L7 ~ L12 become the descendants of L6. These relationships will be used later to construct modified incidence matrix.
C. Up/Down Area Definition
If a monitor is installed in power system, the monitor can identify the relative location of event source [6], [7]. In other words, the monitor can determine whether the event has come from UP area or DOWN area. Determination of relative location of event source is called event direction identification.
The relative location of event source is classified into UP area and DOWN area. Fig. 4 shows the UP/DOWN area in example system. These areas can be defined in two different viewpoints. In electrical view, the power always flows from source to load through power quality monitor in radial distribution system. Therefore DOWN area can be defined as the area to which the power flows from the monitoring point.

UP area is the other area which is not included in DOWN area, that is, the area from which the power flows to monitoring point and their neighborhood area. In topological view considering tree structure, DOWN area can be defined as the monitored component and its descendants in tree. UP area is the other area which is not included in DOWN area, that is, the ascendants of the monitored component and their neighborhood in tree.

D. Modified Incidence Matrix
Once the monitors are located in power system, the UP/DOWN area according to the monitor location is uniquely determined. This means that the bus incidence matrix can be modified considering the monitor locations. If the monitor location replaces the bus locations in bus incidence matrix, the modified incidence matrix can be obtained, which is called coverage matrix.
Coverage matrix informs us of the relation between the monitor and the component. It indicates whether the component is in UP area or DOWN area of a monitor. In other words, it reveals the coverage of the monitors. The coverage matrix is ML matrix. L is the number of lines and M is the number of monitors. The elements of coverage matrix are determined as follows.

which are the descendants of L1 are all set to +1, that is, a21 ~ a12 1 are all +1. For M2 is installed at L3, a32 is +1. Because L4 and L5 are the descendants of L3, a42 and a52 are also +1. Similarly, other elements of matrix are determined.

By just looking at this matrix, the topology and UP/DOWN
area can be inferred. This matrix is fairly useful for monitor positioning and event source locating. In monitor positioning, this matrix is used for ambiguity checking.
III. WEIGHTING FACTORS
A. Four Principles of Monitor Positioning
For there is a tradeoff between the accuracy of results and the economical efficiency, the proper number of monitors and their locations must be determined. In the past, this procedure was performed manually by the power quality experts. The experts installed the monitors according to their own guidelines and knowledge on power quality and system topology. For automatic approach to power quality diagnosis, these guidelines must be clearly stated and formulated. Thus this paper suggests a few principles to select the appropriate monitor locations. The principles can be summarized as the following four categories. Principle 1: (N-1) criterion by KCL
If N lines diverge from a bus, there are N possible points to monitor. In this case, it is ineffective to monitor all N points because the information of one line can be computed by those of other (N-1) lines from KCL (Kirchhoffs Current Law). However, (N-2) monitors are not sufficient because ambiguity happens between the two lines that are not monitored. Therefore, (N-1) is the minimum number of monitor to avoid ambiguity. Principle 2: Higher weight on load branch
Typically the damages caused by power quality problems appear at the customer loads. Customer loads are selected as important monitoring points and monitored first in most cases. For this reason, the load branch and the branch near load must be considered first in selecting (N-1) lines to monitor. Main

feeder or lateral line should be in the next order. In this manner, ambiguity usually happens along the main feeder or lateral line. It means that it becomes easy to use fault distance calculation along the lines. This principle is also consistent with the fact that monitors are typically installed at the service entrance of customer loads. Principle 3: Higher weight on the component with many descendants
The component which has many descendants can monitor more extensive areas than the component with few descendants. It means that it can produce more accurate results. Therefore, these components with many descendants must receive more attention in monitoring. This principle has the tendency to install monitors at the points near power source. This tendency may be thought to be somewhat opposite to the principle 2. However, it will be proven in proceeding section that principle 2 and 3 can cooperate with each other to get reasonable results. Principle 4: Installation at branch beginning point
Monitors have to be installed at beginning point of branch, that is, just after a branch diverges from a bus. In this manner, the branch where a monitor is installed can be included in the monitoring coverage of the monitor. The fact that the branch is not included in the monitoring coverage requires the complex modifications of tree and incidence matrix. This principle is a kind of technical approach to avoid these problems.

Fig. 6 Application of monitor positioning principles
Four principles are applied to the example system in Fig. 6. M1 is compulsory monitor location at service entrance. M2 and M3 follow principle 1 for two monitors should be positioned from 3 possible positions. M2 and M3 also follow principle 3 for L3 and L6 has several times of descendants compared to L2. M5 and M6 follow principle 1 and principle 2 as shown in the figure. M4 and M7 follow only principle 1 because two parallel loads are topologically same branches.
B. Definitions of Weighting Factors
According to the principles suggested in section III.A, each component of system has its own degree of importance. The degree of importance should be formulated for the application to computing algorithm. It can be formulated by weighting
factors which properly estimates the degree. In this section, these weighting factors are defined according to the principles.
To formulate the weighting factors, it is necessary to give each component a property and a number. The property of component is classified as main feeder, lateral line and load. The component is numbered considering bus number and the number of branch connected to the bus. For example, cij is the jth component connected to the bus i. The results of component numbering and component properties are shown in Fig. 7.

With these properties and notations, the weighting factors can be formulated as follows considering principle 1, 2 and 3. Principle 3 results in the weighting factor i , principle 2 corresponds to the weighting factor

i is the normalized value representing the number of descendants of a bus i compared to the total number of components. Therefore
i informs us of how extensive area can be monitored at bus i.
i holds for all the branches connected to bus i.
ij is the normalized value representing the weight of a component j compared to the total weights at a bus i. Main feeder receives the half value of weighting factor of lateral line and load has twice of the weight of lateral line, that is,
MfLo
La www 22 == . Therefore the load branch receives
higher weight than main feeder or lateral line. ij reduces the
weighing factor of a component which has minimum weighting factor at a bus i to be as small as that of a component at the end of the system. It means that the component will have less possibility to be monitored by (N-1) criterion because the component may be selected at last order.
i , ij and ij will be used together in optimization routine which will be formulated in chapter V.
IV. AMBIGUITY INDEX
A. Definitions of Ambiguity Indices Ambiguity happens when (N-1) criterion is not satisfied.
When 5 children are connected to a bus, if only 2 children are monitored, the remaining 3 children cannot be discriminated by the monitors. It is because the 3 children are in the same position topologically. In other words, they are topologically ambiguous. Fig. 8 shows the topological ambiguity problem in example system.

Fig. 8 Illustration of topological ambiguity
For all the components can not be monitored, ambiguity problem happens. If the number of monitors is not sufficient, there exists topological ambiguity in distinguishing the
components. This topological ambiguity can be expressed in the form of ambiguity index. There can be two kinds of ambiguity. One is System Total Ambiguity (STA) and the other is Section Maximum Ambiguity (SMA)

STA represents the ability to discriminate the location of event source under the assumption that the event can happen at all components. SMA represents the degree of how equally the section is divided. Two indices are normalized by the total number of components of the system. Using these two indices, the System Average Ambiguity (SAA) can be calculated. SAA has adopted the geometric mean to give smaller value when the ambiguity is equally distributed all over the sections.

For ambiguity checking, each section must be found from coverage matrix. The algorithm is repeated for all sections and all the components of each section are investigated whether they are ambiguous or not. Ambiguity checking has three steps, that is, monitor checking, parent checking and (N-1) criterion checking. After all the components are investigated, STA, SMA and SAA are calculated.
This algorithm is applied to the example system shown in Fig. 8. (14) is the coverage matrix of Fig 8.

Therefore, they are not included in calculating ambiguity index. L6 and L8 follow the (N-1) criterion. They are not also included. Therefore, the remaining components (L4, L5), (L9, L10, L11, L12) are included in calculating ambiguity index. The resulting ambiguity indices are
126=STA , 124=SMA and 899.4=SAA .

IEEE 37 node Test Feeder - Bus: 37 - Load: 25 - Line: 36 - Component: 61
Fig. 11 One-line diagram of IEEE 37 node test feeder
The total number of component is 61. Therefore, it is fairly difficult to select the appropriate monitoring point manually. Therefore, the monitor positioning algorithm is applied to this test feeder. The results are shown in Fig. 12 relating SAA with the number of monitor.
Fig. 12 Optimal number of monitor and SAA according to NMmax
As NMmax increases, the SAA decreases gradually. If NMmax25, SAA reaches to zero value. It means that no ambiguity exists and it is unnecessary to install more monitors. The solution at NMmax=25 is Xopt = {L1, L2, L27, L4, L9, L36,L39, L45, L42, L10, L47, L16, L54,L56, L28, L17, L48, L30, L21, L5,L22, L49, L58, L15, L31}.
Careful investigation of Fig. 12 will also give the customer a good understanding on the relation between system efficiency and economic efficiency. Until 25max == NMNM opt , the SAA decreases as more monitors are installed. However, the SAA drops slowly at a certain regions and drops rapidly in some regions. By noticing this tendency, the customer can decide the number of monitor to install more efficiently in economic view. For example, if the customer has the economic capability of 15min =NM and 20max =NM , the customer may install 20 monitors. However, for SAA drops rapidly at 17=optNM or 19=optNM compared to SAA of
previous optNM , the customer can select 17 or 19 monitor
considering economic efficiency. If 6min =NM and 10max =NM , it is rather economic to choose 9 monitors than
10 monitors because the difference of SAA is fairly slight between 9=optNM and 10=optNM .
VI. CONCLUSIONS In this paper, monitor positioning algorithm has determined
the optimal number of monitors and their locations. It has constructed the coverage matrix and adopted weighting factors and ambiguity indices. The monitors have been positioned at appropriate locations using the weighting factors and the results have been proven to be adequate in the sense of ambiguity. The proposed algorithm has realized the experts knowledge into sophisticated automatic computing algorithm. It gives a guideline for monitor positioning and also suggests an answer for the number of monitor and locations.
