This research addresses the issue of energy loss in electrical distribution networks by analyzing and mitigating system loss at the Pachrukhi Sub-Zonal Office under Narayanganj Palli Bidyut Samiti-2. System loss, encompassing technical and non- technical components, significantly impacts energy distribution efficiency and sustainability. The study aims to identify root causes, measure consequences, and propose practical remedies to enhance operational effectiveness. Real-time data from the Pachrukhi Zonal Office was analyzed to assess transformer efficiency, distribution line performance, and client-related issues. The research has been carried out in a structured approach, including data collection and its analysis. Using advanced analytical tools, The results have shown that the total system loss is about (4.99%). Technical losses (1.3%) due to line resistance and non-technical losses (3.68%) from unauthorized consumption were quantified. Some of the key recommendations include modernization of the distribution infrastructure, installation of AMI, and strengthening of monitoring systems. These are likely to increase the reliability and economy of theelectrical distribution system significantly by reducing the system loss. This paper furthers our understanding of the system loss dynamics in rural electrification settings and provides utility companies and policymakers with a framework that can be employed in the maximization of electricity distribution. Solving these problems will lead to sustainable development goals and ensure better resource utilization. |
