Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to investigate and understand the design of distribution power system networks, with the main focus on Hasaheesa distribution system network especially Hasaheesa 11kv feeder which supply power to Hasaheesa city.
The thesis looked into the best design which combines successfully between low cost of equipments, tools, operation and maintenance of the distribution networks.
Also high efficiency where the designers challenge to maximize the output by reducing the losses is considered, the networks should be managed by qualified engineers and trained labors to gain more safety to keep the networks healthy all the time.
The thesis explained the definition of how to design distribution networks. It is then proceeded to discuss the various types of designing distribution power system networks especially the overhead line design.
The thesis explained the operation and safety in power system distribution networks. Finally, the designed network is simulated with load flow program (Newton-Raphson) to know the voltage behavior compared with load connected at different points.
