This paper aims to present a methodology for the calculation of technical losses per segment of a power distribution system. One of the most important data is the billed energy of each customer. After this calculation, it is achieved the energy supplied by each feeder. This calculated energy is, then, compared with the measured energy. As a result of this comparison, it is possible to correct the technical losses calculated previously, considering the flow of the non-billed energy (theft and fraud) through the network. Consequently, it is achieved a new value for the technical losses and for the non-technical losses. On this paper it is presented the methodology for the calculation of technical losses with the correction through the measurements and the results obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
