Shunt capacitor banks (SCBs) are used in distribution systems for loss reduction, voltage stability improvement for the system nodes, and system capacity release. However, the size of these capacitors and their placement locations are design factors that have been considered as single or multi-objectives to derive maximum benefits from their installation. To find the optimal location and size of the SCBs, this study proposes the application of multi-objective salp swarm algorithms, considered at ambient temperature, in radial distribution systems. Additionally, a fuzzy-based mechanism has been utilized to identify the best-fit solution of three different objective functions. The proposed method is implemented on IEEE 15-bus and 33-bus radial distribution systems, as well as on real data taken from the Saudi Electricity Company. The results indicate improved effectiveness and higher capability of the proposed method.

并联电容器组（SCB）用于配电系统中，以减少损耗，提高系统节点的电压稳定性和释放系统容量。但是，这些电容器的尺寸及其放置位置是设计因素，已被视为单个或多个目标，可从其安装中获得最大收益。为了找到SCB的最佳位置和大小，本研究提出了在环境温度下考虑的多目标Salp群算法在径向分布系统中的应用。此外，基于模糊的机制已被用来识别三种不同目标函数的最佳拟合解决方案。所提出的方法在IEEE 15总线和33总线径向分配系统以及从沙特电力公司获得的真实数据上实现。
