Abstract

Relevance The calculation of electrical loads is the basis for choosing the carrying capacity of all elements of the electrical network. An increase in rated loads compared to the necessary ones leads to cost overruns on power transmission lines and an increase in power of transformers, and a decrease in rated loads leads to increased power dissipation in networks, increased heating of conductors and transformers and increased thermal deterioration of their insulation. The reliability of the calculation of electrical loads depends both on the reliability of the calculation coefficients used and on the correctness of the methods used. Therefore, the research and improvement of the calculation of electrical loads in the design of power supply systems is an actual problem. Aim of research To investigate the determination of rated loads of transformer substations, methods of accounting for power dissipation in different modes of operation of the power supply system and methods for determining rated currents of cable lines to transformer substations. To consider the correctness of the use of standard forms for determining electrical loads recommended by regulatory documents. To develop a generalized form of performing calculations of electrical loads of transformer substations, combining the calculation of loads on the side of lower and higher voltages. Research methods To solve the tasks, the definition of electrical loads according to standard forms of regulatory documents is investigated. The methods of accounting for power dissipation in transformers under different operating modes of the power supply system and the determination of rated currents along cable lines to transformer substations are considered. Results The shortcomings of the execution and design of the calculation of electrical loads according to standard forms are revealed: standard forms do not contain information at which values of the heating time constant calculations are performed to determine the rated power of the electrical power load on the side of the lower and higher voltages of transformer substations, do not contain the definition of power dissipation in transformers. Ways of improving the calculation of electrical loads of transformer substations are proposed. A generalized form of execution and design of calculations of electrical loads of transformer substations have been developed, which include the values of time constants when calculating electrical power loads, the type and passport data of the selected transformer, calculations of power dissipation in transformers in two modes and calculations of the load current of cable lines to transformer substations.
