The current distribution networks are going to be challenged by new developments on the side of generation and simultaneously also on the side of consumption. Therefore this paper provides an overview of LV network design aspects with emphasis on the implications of the future challenges on LV networks. The attention is especially given to the future aspect of the network design, substation automation,...
The future distribution networks are going to be challenged by increasing penetration of distributed generators and simultaneously by increasing loading (inter alia heat pumps, air conditioners or electric vehicles). The increasing penetration of those appliances can escalate and jeopardize the functionality of current protection devices. Therefore, this article proposes a new overloading protection...
This paper describes the application of the smart medium to low voltage transformer to increase the flexibility of distribution networks, support the accommodation of distributed generation and to attenuate the voltage fluctuations originating from medium voltage network. The theoretical framework is set and three possible control strategies are investigated and their performance to mitigate voltage...
This paper provides insight into the illegal use or abstraction of electricity in the Netherlands. The importance and the economic aspects of theft detection are presented and the current practices and experiences are discussed. The paper also proposes a novel methodology for automated detection of illegal utilization of electricity in the future distribution networks equipped with smart metering...
An increasing amount of distributed generation in the future grid will be connected at the customer's point of connection. The generation within the low voltage grid will affect the power quality of customers connected to this grid. Hence, the concept of a Smart MV/LV transformer as a part of the Smart MV/LV substation is discussed in this paper. The main aims are to support the accommodation of distributed...
