Improved Reliability Analysis of Electricity Power Supply to Port Harcourt Distribution Network

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 7

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of reliability assessment for some area of electrical energy distribution system in Port Harcourt using analytical approach being supported by Electrical transient analyzer tool (ETAP) in order to run simulation on reliability assessment of the system. The investigation considered station-road, Amadi-North, floor-mail and Borikiri substation for purpose of analysis and verification. From the simulation results from system indices of ASAI: 0.9986pu, SAIFI: 0.7840 f/customer.yr, SAIDI: 12.66440hr/customer.yer, CAIDI: 16.128 hr/customer interruption in 2016 and ASAI: 0.9990pu, SAIFI: 0.78208/customer, yr. SAIDI:12.7740 hr/customer.yr, CAIDI: 16.108hr/customer interrupting in 2017. The reliability indices of the substations under study as obtained from the anlaysis, revealed that the reliability of the distribution system is below the set standard. Evidently improvement technique will be recommended in order to strengthen the activity of the system.
