Abstract
State estimation is used in power systems to estimate grid variables based on meter measurements. Unfortunately, power grids are vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Reducing cyber-attacks against state estimation is necessary to ensure power system safe and reliable operation. False data injection (FDI) is a type of cyber-attack that tampers with measurements. This paper proposes network reconfiguration as a strategy to decrease FDI attacks on distribution system state estimation. It is well-known that network reconfiguration is a common approach in distribution systems to improve the system’s operation. In this paper, a modified switch opening and exchange (MSOE) method is used to reconfigure the network. The proposed method is tested on the IEEE 33-bus system. It is shown that network reconfiguration decreases the power measurements manipulation under false data injection attacks. Also, the resilient configuration of the distribution system is achieved, and the best particular configuration for reducing FDI attacks on each bus is obtained.
