In this paper a new methodology is used to reconfigure the topology of distribution system and placement of Distributed generators (DG) optimally. This methodology is adopted from the three optimization techniques which are Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Blue Whale Optimization (BWO). The basic principles of the GA is used the optimal switching, the foundation for the swarm searching techniques, PSO is used to find the optimal placement and latest optimization technique, BWO is used to find the size of the type-III DG. The major objective of the paper is to minimize the losses through optimal reconfiguration and optimal placement of DG in balanced radial distribution system.
