LOSS MINIMIZATION TECHNIQUES IN DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Mehta Nimesh Mahendrabhai

Abstract :

 An electric distribution system plays an important role in achieving satisfactory power supply. The quality of power is measured by voltage stability and profile of voltage. But because of losses in distribution system, its voltage profile affects. Basically, the losses could be defined as the difference between the metered units energy input into the distribution system and the total energy paid that leaving the network through electricity accounts, whether calculated or estimated, in any given period. As total distribution losses equals to sum of technical losses and non–technical losses. This paper presents various techniques to reduce these losses and their contribution in improving power efficiency of distribution system. Also, presents merits and demerits of techniques.
