This paper proposes a new joint coordination approach for the operation of LV network to deal with voltage rise issue. Mixed distributed and localized control strategies have been used to avoid overvoltages in LV network. With this method, two operating modes (normal and voltage control) have been introduced for LV network which were established to assist the application of method proposed in this paper. This approach was applied to a typical residential LV network and the results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach to resolve the voltage rise issue in LV network. It is worth noting that the same strategy can be applied for other operational goals such as undervoltage prevention and peak load shaving which will be considered in future research work.
