A Simplified Approach in Estimating Technical Losses in Distribution Network Based on Load Profile and Feeder Characteristics
This paper presents an approach to estimate technical losses of a large utility distribution network based on feeder load factor and feeder characteristics, such as feeder length, peak demand to installed capacity ratio, and load distribution profile along feeder. In this approach, feeders with diff...
