Study of Power Loss in Three Phase Radial Distribution System

Abstract

Seventy five percent of total global energy demand is supplied by the burning of fossil fuels. But increasing air pollution, global warming concerns, diminishing fossil fuels and their increasing cost have made it necessary to look towards renewable sources as a future energy solution.

In this paper review about Power Loss, Load flow analyses in radial distribution system. Study about enhancing voltage profile and decreasing power losses in electrical systems is must be solved in an optimal way due to load flow analysis in single phase and three phase radial distribution system. To improve voltage profile & stability of existing power system, FACTS devices and load flow analysis are the alternative solution. Different IEEE radial distribution system structure, difference between radial and ring main system and radial distribution system is shown better as compared to other distribution system.It describes active power loss, reactive power loss and voltage profile of radial distribution system as well as study about renewable energy source like distributed generation.
