Effect of distributed generation on very long distribution line with automatic voltage regulator

Abstract

This paper presents the effect of distributed generation (DG) in voltage variation and losses on very long distribution line with multiple voltage regulator. This paper considers the operation of DG effected voltage along distribution and power loss when varying load. From this study the operation of DG has effected to voltage along the very long distribution line depended on load varying and location. Therefore, the size of distributed generation has to be carefully considered when it installed on very long distribution system. ©2009 IEEE.
