Minimization of Power Loss & Improvement in Voltage Profile of 11kV Feeder by Different Techniques

Reducing power loss and improving voltage profiles in distribution systems are important for developing countries facing increasing electricity demand. The gap between supply and demand cannot be addressed by increasing generation alone; scientific techniques and methods are needed to reduce distribution system losses. Distribution reforms and reducing losses through various techniques in the three categories of technical, non-technical, and administrative losses can help improve the situation while generation is increased over time.

Minimization of Power

Loss & Improvement in


Voltage Profile of 11kV
Feeder by Different
Techniques
One of the greatest and the most obvious problem that India & the other developing
countries are facing today is the increasing demand of electricity and its poor
supply. The rising gap between demand and supply of electricity is the major factor
of concern to developing countries like India. The power generation cannot be
increased over night, and involves lot of investments. However, the present day
scenario can be improved if we apply some more scientific techniques and methods
to reduce power loss in distribution system.

-Rahul Sharma

ndias power sector is a Dripping Vessel and the logical thing to do would be to

fix the bucket properly rather than persistently emphasize shortage of power. China is
way ahead of to meet with increase in demand of electricity, the increase in
production and reduction in losses has been equally given importance. The
distribution reforms are identified as the main area to improve gap between supply
and demand.
The distribution system plays an important role in any electric power system and
requires a detail analysis of various types of losses occurring in a distribution system
and methods / techniques are required to be developed for reducing the same. The
losses occurring in a distribution system can be classified into following
three categories.

Technical Loss
Non-Technical Loss
Administrative Loss.
