Evaluation of design and planning parameter impact by energy efficient measures through appliance-based modelling
(IEEE, 2017)In a rapidly evolving industry as a result of consumer self-generation and a drive to become more energy efficient, it is necessary to understand whether traditional network planning methods are sufficient. Electrical ... -
Impact of energy efficiency and renewable energy on electricity master planning and design parameters
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)At the core of network planning and designs, after diversity maximum demand (ADMD) is routinely used to define network conditions at peak periods. This dissertation explores the impact of distributed generation and energy ... -
Impact on power factor by small scale renewable energy generation
(IEEE, 2017)Domestic installations traditionally were believed to be resistive in nature and did not affect power factor much, if at all. With increasing affordability of air-conditioners, and replacement of electrical geysers with ... -
Novel intelligent energy management system for residential PV systems in non-feed-in tariff countries
(Research India Publications, 2018)Currently within South Africa and other developing countries, net-metering policies are not yet widely implemented which hinders the adoption of residential PV systems. Without proper net-metering policies in place, the ... -
Optimum coordination of directional overcurrent relays in a distribution network with distributed generation
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)The conventional relay protection coordination method is mainly used in the industry to calculate the protective overcurrent relay settings. The conventional method requires many inputs and does not produce the best relay ...
