Abstract (en)

[origin: CA3113153A1] The disclosed method reconstructs a topology of an electrical distribution network. An ohmic matrix model of the network is generated according to consumption measurements provided by smart meters in the network. A tree table of nodes to which the meters are connected is defined. A branch under exploration is defined in the table and the nodes of the branch satisfying pre-established relationships are entered in the table according to connection values derived from resistance levels in the matrix model. One of the relationships determines a junction of the branch under exploration with an already explored branch that can be linked to a root to which a distribution transformer of the network is connected. The topology is reconstructed by proceeding iteratively in sequences of decreasing values derived from the resistance levels.
