 The article discusses the issues of optimizing the operating modes of medium voltage electrical networks in conditions of increasing accident rates of electrical equipment. It is noted that in the context of the constantly increasing number of subscribers of energy companies and their declared capacities, which influences changes in the configuration of the electrical network, questions arise about optimizing the operating modes of electrical networks. Therefore, it is necessary to consider and take into account normal modes and, most importantly, take into account the impact of post-emergency modes on all adjacent subscribers of the distribution network, taking into account ensuring the reliability and quality of electricity. An analysis of accident statistics for 2015-2021 was performed. according to Rostechnadzor. There is an increase in the number of accidents in 2021 by 47% compared to 2020. The main causes of accidents are considered. To solve the problem, it is proposed to accelerate the implementation of the “Digital Transformation 2030” Concept of PJSC Rosseti, including the transition to digital substations. It is proposed to increase the reliability of power supply through additional sectioning and automatic backup using reclosers6. Issues of operational reliability of automated digital substations and distribution of responsibilities are discussed. It is concluded that it is necessary to take into account changed network configurations and visual monitoring of equipment in the context of digitalization.
