BALANCING OF PHASE LOADS IN LOW VOLTAGE THREE-PHASE FOUR-WIRE NETWORKS

The imbalance of phase loads is a natural negative property low-voltage three-phase four-wire network due to uneven connection the phases and difference in individual consumer demand for electricity. nodes leads decrease quality electricity, overestimated technical losses current overloads one power lines. In paper, balancing performed using heuristic algorithm based on average hourly readings voltages smart meters. effectiveness was evaluated by reducing losses, maximum currents wires neutral wire real feeder electrical
