Network reconfiguration in distribution systems can be carried out by changing the status of sectionalizing switches and it is usually done for loss minimization and load balancing. In this paper it is presented an heuristic algorithm that accomplishes network reconfiguration for operation planning in order to obtain a configuration set whose configurations have the smallest active losses on its feeders. To obtain the configurations, it is used an approached radial load flow method and an heuristic proceeding based on maximum limit of voltage drop on feeders. Results are presented for three hypothetical systems largely known whose data are available in literature and a real system with 135 busses. In addition, it is used a fast and robust load flow which decreases the computational effort.
