Electric power system consists of Generation,
Transmission and Distribution System
The successful service to supply electric power is to
provide sufficient amount of energy consumption to
customers with reliable, security, quality in an economic
manner.
So, we need to keep system in secure manner.

A properly designed and operated power system should, meet the
following fundamental requirements:
The system must be able to meet the continually changing
active and reactive power demand. An adequate “spinning
reserve” of active and reactive power should be maintained and
appropriately controlled.
The system should supply energy at minimum cost and with
minimum ecological impact, through various control measures.
The “quality” of power supply must meet certain minimum
standards with regards to the following factors.
Constant frequency
Constant voltage
Level of reliability
7
Major problems we need to consider
How to select voltage level?
Where to locate electricity cabinet?
How to calculate numbers transformers and its
sizing?
How to select cable section?
How to compensate reactive power?
Selecting of protection devices
8
Required large demands of reactive power
3 phases with voltage level less than 1000V and
frequency 50 Hz
Load type
Lighting Loads
Power Loads (motors)
Heating Loads
Electronic Loads

Industrial heating load
(1) Large space heaters,
(2) Ovens (baking, heat-treating, enameling, etc.),
(3) Furnaces (steel, brass, etc.),
(4) Welding Plants,
(5) High-frequency heating devices.
Electronic load
Television,
X-rays,
Laser equipment,
Computers,
Digital time and timing devices,
Rectifiers,
Oscillators for high frequency current production, and
Many other electronically operated devices. 10
Classification of electrical loads
Electrical loads are classified into 3 categories:
First category:
Power interruption have huge impact to human life,
equipment, quality of production, and production
system
So, we need to supply the loads in this category with
high reliability
11
Second category:
Power interruption can lead to failure production,
make some machinery out of services, stop workers’
activities…
The loads in this category can be out of service for
short periods of time where operator spend to switch
to other sources only.
12
Third category:
Othersloads do not include in the 2 categories
mention above (first and second category)
The loads in this category can be out of service not
until operate found the fault or repaired the equipment
failure but interruption is not more than 48 h
