Comparative Analysis of Devices for Improvement Quality of Power Supply in 0.38 kV Distribution Networks in Rural Area and Inner Suburbs

Abstract

Large variations of voltage at consumers from the nominal value and voltages asymmetry in four-wire distribution networks have led to the development of devices for improvement of power supply in these networks. The problem of using a booster to improve the quality of power supply in four-wire electric networks of rural areas and the private sector is shown. A new device is proposed - a booster balancer. Analytical and mathematical models of voltage-boosting devices have been developed. A comparative analysis of three devices for improvement of power supply in four-wire distribution networks of rural areas and inner suburbs. This analysis showed the advantages of the new device.
