Analysis of Load Imbalance in Tarakan Distribution Transformer of PT PLN (Persero) Sukarami Customer Service Unit
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2024, Vol 9, Issue 05
Abstract
Load imbalance in an electric power distribution system always occurs and the cause of this imbalance is unbalanced single-phase loads on low voltage network customers. As a result of this load imbalance, a current arises in the neutral of the transformer, which can cause power losses. The aim of the research is to analyse the load imbalance of the Distribution Transformer PC0044, PC0074, PC0088, PC0129, PC1319 on the Tarakan Feeder of PT PLN (Persero) Sukarami Customer Service Unit. The results of the research show that the highest peak load percentage occurs on the PC1319 Distribution Transformer, namely 93.0874%, and based on PLN ED Decree No. 0017.E/DIR/2014, transformer loading. The largest percentage of load imbalance occurs in the PC0044 Distribution Transformer, namely 38.0952%, and based on PLN ED Decree No. 0017.E/DIR/2014, the current imbalance between phases is included in the bad category because the load imbalance is ≥ 25%. The largest percentage of power losses due to neutral current in the transformer neutral conductor occurs in the PC0044 Distribution Transformer, namely 2.6737%, and based on PLN ED Decree No. 0017.E/DIR/2014, the neutral current TR is included in the good category because the power losses due to the neutral current in the transformer neutral conductor are <10%. The largest percentage of power losses due to neutral current flowing to the ground occurs in the PC0044 Distribution Transformer, namely 5.0784%.
