Load models for mixed-class domestic and fixed, constant power loads for use in probabilistic LV feeder analysis

In previous articles a probabilistic voltage analysis method was presented for LV feeders. It proved to be superior to existing methods used in the South African electrification program. In this method domestic customer loads are represented by a Beta probability distribution function. The work presented in this article expands the load models to include fixed constant power loads as well as mixes of beta-distributed customer load classes. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.
