The document summarizes various types of studies that can be performed using the Opendss software tool:
1) Power flow analysis including unbalanced and multi-phase simulations, harmonic analysis, flicker analysis, and fault analysis
2) Time-series and dynamic simulations of communications and power networks
3) Linear and non-linear analyses, as well as stray voltage/current and wind analyses
It also describes some of the advanced data that can be used, such as load shapes and efficiency curves for different component models.
Case studies are presented on the impact of increasing loads at different nodes, showing effects like exceeding current limits or decreased voltages at other points on the network.

• Increasing the load decreasing the voltage at some remote
corners • Increases current in the line • Overall losses are increasing proportionately Changing Load at R18,I2,C20 Case Specific variation • Uniformly 5 times increase: Exceeding current limit at I2 • Uniformly 10 times increase : Exceeding current limit at UG2 ,UG3-R17 losses - 8.593% • Uniformly 15 times increase (a) Exceeding current limit at UG2 , (b)UG3-R18 losses -12.74% (c)Voltage decreases at R8,R9,R10,R18,I2 • Uniformly 20 times increase : (a) Exceeding current limit at UG3-R18,UG2(I2) (b)UG3-R18 losses -16% (c)Voltage decreases at C20,R6,R7,R8,R9,R10,R16,R17,R18,I2
Non-uniform Increase of load
Tested on Industrial load section 50% i.e. UG-2 ,the result is may not exceeding current value but decreases voltage to 190 volt Why per unit curve is constant? Because it’s only showing the maximum & Minimum values Why current sequence is giving double results? It’s showing terminal based values Why Power is giving +ve & -ve values? Usual Load Curve: Residential Usual Load Curve: Industrial Usual Load Curve: Commercial Reason for Distorted load curves Loadshapes Values Maharashtra DEC,2022 Case Studies - 2
