Abstract
In a context of ongoing energy transition in which distribution networks' end-users are not mere consumers anymore, a more accurate approach to study the power flows in such systems becomes vital, especially considering the intrinsic asymmetry and high percentage of single-phase users connected in the low voltage network. This paper, by addressing the main differences with the usually employed simplified approaches, presents a multiconductor methodology for modelling electric power systems which can be adopted for the analysis of distribution networks. The proposed approach allows for a complete generalization of the network model, providing a detailed set of results which can be used for monitoring and controlling the distribution system.Pubblicazioni consigliate
