Distribution System Modeling The initial decisions: -Three phase or single phase modeling- The extent of the primary model- Secondary distribution modeling The NATURE of the issue and the GOAL of the study constrain these decisions.
Things to note • Any large or unique loads • Capacitor banks/ cables(?) • Transmission supply • Any unusual operating conditions?
Decision 1: Per phase versus Three Phase Modeling • The three phase model is required when: • Single phase or unbalanced capacitors are present • Ground or residual currents are important in the study • Significant unbalanced loading is present • A combination of wye-wye and/or delta-wye transformers leads to harmonic cancellation*
The typical instances where a single phase model may be sufficient are: • A single large three phase harmonic source is the cause of the study • The remaining system is well balanced • Ground currents are not an issue
Decision 2: The extent of the system model • Model the entire primary system • Transmission source can be modeled by the 60 Hertz short circuit impedance if no significant transmission capacitance is nearby– but check that the transmission system is not a source of harmonics • Power factor capacitors and any distributed generation should be modeled in detail
Decision 3: Load and harmonic source modeling • Identify and model all significant harmonic sources • Determine present levels through measurements- also determine if harmonic levels peak at full or light load conditions • Develop aggregate load models based on measurements and load distribution • Validate with measurements taken as harmonic sources/capacitor banks are switched in and out
Characteristics of secondary studies • Different voltage levels • Fewer capacitors, and more with tuning coils • Load data is more accessible- and more important • Measurements can be more economical
Modeling transformers • Model the transformer connection • Neglect the transformer magnetizing branch (usually ignore the transformer magnetizing harmonics) • Model the harmonic reactance as the product of short circuit leakage reactance and harmonic number • Model the harmonic resistance as the short circuit resistance. Correct for skin effect if data or model available. • Include stray capacitance for frequencies above the low khertz range.
Line Models • Distribution lines and cables should be represented by an equivalent pi. An estimated correction factor for skin effect can be included • Model ground path for zero sequence harmonics
Capacitors • Capacitors– model as capacitive reactance– 60 hertz reactance divided by the harmonic number. • Be sure to note those single phase capacitors, and model as such. • Model the capacitor as either grounded wye, or ungrounded wye or delta.
Load Models • Linear Loads • Induction and Synchronous Machines • Non-linear Loads
Linear Passive Loads • TYPES: Incandescent lamps, resistive heater, electric range, water heater, space heater, etc. • CHARACTERISTICS: RL type loads with RL values independent of frequency.

For synchronous generators, the per phase model of the synchronous generator is similar– use a series combination of stator resistance and substransient reactance in the model. • On all direct connected machines, make sure and account for the ground connection (or lack of one) in studies with zero sequence harmonics.
