Reduction of the losses on the electric distribution network Low tension of the Beninese Company of Electrical energy (SBEE)

Abstract

International audienceThe authors approached in this article, the problems of the losses on the distribution network of electrical energy of the Beninese Company of Electrical energy more precisely in district NVENOUMEDE and various approaches for their minimization. According to the international standards in force, the maximum voltage drop of a network should not exceed 10% of the nominal voltage. At the conclusion of measurements taken by the authors, the voltage drop is about 79,52% between phase and neutral and of 68,42 between phases. Thus, the network causes enormous nuisances to the subscribers and maintains a permanent conflict between supplier and consumers. The various approaches simulated by the authors made passed the voltage drop fall of phase from 79,52% to 10,75% and the losses active from 243 kW to 33 kW respectively variations of 86,5% and 92,12%
