Analysis of unbalanced load low-voltage electrical networks operating modes

The article discusses distribution electrical networks 0.38 kV operating modes, feeding individual residential buildings. The electrical energy parameters measurement were certified RESURS-UF2M device carried out. The currents and voltages time diagrams based on the measurements made and using Matlab technologies were constructed. It is established that the level of phase currents unbalance is quite high and causes significant three-phase power supply system unbalance voltage accordingly. The power of quality indicators - calculations, characterizing voltage unbalance were made, which were based on the measurements and the computer program “Asymmetry” was used. As well as the additional power losses coefficient determining by the phase currents unbalance, were calculations. Time diagrams these indicators are constructed and their analysis were made. As a result, the power of quality is significantly reduced by unbalance power consumption in the studied electrical network were founded. At the same time, the additional power losses are significant increases. Specific recommendations for the normalization electrical network-operating mode are given
