The system constraints which kept within a satisfactory limits such as voltage magnitudes of all load buses, real power, reactive power at each bus. This study proposed two optimization techniques: bird swarm optimization and Genetic algorithm. These optimization techniques are implemented on IEEE 30 bus test system. The model of proposed system is developed in the MATLAB and its simulated results have demonstrated the satisfactory values. ER -
