The following paper presents a metaheuristic methodology to address the challenge of efficient pole swapping in bipolar DC distribution networks with asymmetric loads. This methodology is based on the use of a vortex search algorithm, whose purpose is to determine and evaluate various configurations for the connection of load in the positive and negative nodes until the optimal solution is reached. Obtaining this solution is achieved by evaluating the triangular power flow, seeking to achieve the minimum value of active power losses. To validate its effectiveness, this methodology was applied to two IEEE test systems, one composed of 21 nodes and the other of 85 nodes, and the results were compared with previous research.
